Mrs. Littlewood.

May I come in?

Sylvia.

Oh, Mrs. Littlewood, do!

Mrs. Littlewood.

I met Dr. Macfarlane just outside my house, and he told me the Colonel was dead. I came with him to see if I could be of any use.

Sylvia.

It’s very kind of you. Is Dr. Macfarlane here?

Mrs. Littlewood.

Yes. He went upstairs. Where is John?
