Debts?

Roger

Yes. Not just clothes and living—other things. I paid up, but I didn't like it. I didn't like the things. But I thought it was just a boy's foolishness. I thought he would be all right after that, but—he wasn't.

Margaret

He wasn't....

Roger

No. After a couple of years I had to straighten it out again. I came down on him flat. He promised to cut it.

Margaret

But he was doing such wonderful work!
