Bless you, I’ve known her all my life. We went to the Brixton High School together, and I was a bridesmaid at her wedding. Why, we used to be popping in and out of one another’s houses all day long.
Withers.
And now, if you please, she’ll hardly look at us.
Abbott.
I’m afraid people don’t much like her at Taverner, but she’s done everything she could for us, and they’re awfully generous.
Rosie.
I don’t care what anybody says about her, she’s been perfectly sweet to me. She told me that I might come to the Hall whenever I wanted to, and I’m always dropping in to lunch there.
Lady Wanley.
Oh well, if they’re nice to you, I forgive them. Mrs. Jennings can cut me till she’s blue in the face.
Rosie.
