[Quietly.] You haven’t forgotten that article in The Financial Standard?
George Winter.
[Gaily.] Oh, is that what you want to talk to me about? I tell you that shan’t disturb my night’s rest. By the way, that reminds me: if I have won the election it was through no help of yours. I asked you to go down and speak in the Cattle Market, and when I got there I found there’d been no sign of you. It might have been devilish awkward.
James Ford.
Well, it so happens it didn’t matter.
George Winter.
Where did you get to after all?
James Ford.
[Looking at him.] I went up to London!
George Winter.
