TED MORRIS.
I—I don't think I have the pleasure of knowing you.
THEODORE TRAVERS.
Not hitherto. I have come on purpose to remove that reproach from you. I believe you have the distinction of being a cousin of mine. My name is Travers—Theodore Travers.
JACK MEDBURY.
What, the Theodore Travers? The author?
THEODORE TRAVERS.
Well I know of no other. I rather think one of us is sufficient for this sized world. (Turns aside and writes covertly on his cuff.) Books everywhere—microscope—smokes briar—shaves at intervals.
TED MORRIS.
Well, I'm very glad to see you, and I'm very glad to learn you're my cousin, though I don't quite understand how.
