Sir P. It concerns her, doesn’t it?
Phil. Of course.
Sir P. And she being your half-sister, it concerns you.
Phil. Miss Derwent, my half-sister! What do you mean?
Sir P. That Philip Selwyn and Philip Derwent were one and the same person.
Phil. Sir Peter!
Sir P. Of that I have no proof, except your father’s word.
Phil. My father’s word?
Sir P. Given to me on his death-bed. Do you doubt his word? Do you doubt mine?
