[Getting up.] No, I’m sure you will prefer to be alone with John.

Mrs. Wharton.

It was very good of you to come. Good-bye, my dear, and God bless you.

Mrs. Littlewood.

Good-bye.

[They kiss one another and Mrs. Littlewood goes out.]

Dr. Macfarlane.

[Shaking hands with Mrs. Wharton.] I may look in later in the day to see how you are.

Mrs. Wharton.
