Professor. Thank God for that!— Well?
Elfrida. Oh, Grandpapa, I’ve had such a lovely time! You got my letter?
Professor. Yes, my dear— Oh, by the way, you’ve come just too late.
Elfrida. What for?
Professor. The Doctor, my dear. I wanted him to see you.
Elfrida. Why?
Professor. To tell me how you are.
Elfrida. But I’m quite well—ever so well!
Professor. I hope so, my dear, but one never knows.
Elfrida. I do! And Grandpapa, you got my present, didn’t you?
