Captain Montgomerie.
I trust you have good news for me.
Lady Frederick.
Captain Montgomerie, every one here knows the circumstances that have brought you.
Captain Montgomerie.

Lady Frederick.
[Very amiably.] I don't see why you should be ashamed because you made me a proposal of marriage?
Captain Montgomerie.
