"Very good, ma'am."
"And I shall be obliged if you will answer them truthfully. How long have you been in Mr. Finch's employment?"
"About a couple of months, ma'am."
"And what is your opinion of Mr. Finch's morals?"
"They're swell."
"Nonsense. Don't attempt to deceive me. Is it not a fact that during your term of employment you have frequently admitted female visitors to this apartment?"
"Only models, ma'am."
"Models!"
"Mr. Finch is an artist."
"I am aware of it," said Mrs. Waddington with a shiver. "So you persist in your statement that Mr. Finch's mode of life is not irregular?"
