Mrs. Mountcalm-Villiers. I have my carriage. (To Elizabeth.) Can I give you a lift?

Elizabeth. Thank you. (To Geoffrey.) We shall meet again.

Geoffrey. I feel sure of it.

(Mrs. Mountcalm-Villiers and Elizabeth go out.)

Phoebe. (To Hake.) Are Miss Blake’s things dry yet?

Janet. They’ll be quite all right, dear. Please don’t trouble. (She advances a timid hand to Geoffrey.) Goodbye, Mr. Chilvers.

Geoffrey. (He takes it smiling.) Goodbye.

(She goes out; Hake follows.)

Phoebe. Goodbye, old boy. (They shake hands.) Don’t you let her walk over you. Make her fight.

Annys. (Laughing.) Don’t you worry about that.
