MRS. DE MULLIN

(sternly)

Were those the only times you met him, Janet?

JANET

Of course not, mother. After the Weymouth collision we met constantly, nearly every day. We used to meet out riding and I had tea with him lots of times in his rooms.

MRS. DE MULLIN

(horrified)

How long did this go on?

JANET

More than a month—till he left Weymouth, in fact. Now, mother, is that all you want to know? Because if so we’ll drop the subject.
