Pri. These are the rooms, madam. This door leads into the bedroom.

[Shows door 1 E. L., and Elizabeth takes luggage in.

Luc. Many thanks. Don’t forget the horses at six o’clock to-morrow morning.

Pri. To the moment, madam. (Aside to Elizabeth, who has re-entered.) If you can find time, join us downstairs. Don’t forget; I shall expect you.

Eliz. All right; as soon as missus has done with me.

[Exit Pri.

Cha. (R. H., waking up). Hullo! there’s somebody talking in the next room.
