Lady Mereston.
Will you tell Mr. Fouldes that I should like to see him at once?
Thompson.
[Looking at his watch.] Excuse me, my lady, but Mr. Fouldes said no one was to disturb him till ten o'clock. It's more than my place is worth to go to him at five minutes to.
Lady Mereston.
But what on earth's he doing?
Thompson.
I don't know at all, my lady.
Lady Mereston.
How long have you been with Mr. Fouldes?
