Lady L.—You are rocking like a rocking-horse. Do you remember the rocking-horse at Newcastle?

Yes.

Lady L.—Can you give its name? (They went through the alphabet, and it spelt out:—)

Prince.

[It used to be called Archer Prince.]

(Soon after this the table began to show signs of restlessness, and Honor said: "I expect he wants to send a message." So Lady Lodge said:—)

Lady L.—Do you want to send a message?

Yes.

Honor.—Well, we're all ready; start away.
