"Anne Warrington Witherup."

Dr. Maclaren being a courteous man, and I being a lady, I felt confident that this would fetch him; and it apparently did, for two hours later I received this message:

"Witherup, London:

"Am not here. Have gone to Edinburgh. Do not know when I shall return.

"(Signed)

"Maclaren."

To this I immediately replied:

"Maclaren, Liverpool:

"All right. Will meet you at Edinburgh, as requested.

"(Signed)

"Witherup."
