I’ll do my best to be very matter of fact.
Lady Sellenger.
[Raising her voice.] Mr. Blenkinsop, I want to quarrel with you!
Blenkinsop.
[Coming forward.] You fill me with consternation.
Lady Sellenger.
You passed us in Pall Mall this afternoon and you cut us dead.
Blenkinsop.
I’m so sorry, I didn’t see you. I’d just been to the War Office to inquire if there was any news of those fellows out in India. By the way, Halstane, isn’t Hollington a relation of yours?
Gerald.
