CAPT. EPPINGWELL
With Freda Moloof?
MRS. EPPINGWELL
With Freda Moloof. There she is now, buying things for the journey most probably.
CAPT. EPPINGWELL
(Turning to look at Freda, and turning back again.)
I must say she couldn't have done better if he is worth all you say he is. I remember him now, a strapping fellow, brave as a lion and all that.
MRS. EPPINGWELL
Yes, but he's caressed more shovel-handles than women's hands, and that's the trouble with him. And I don't know what I shall do.
