Lawton: “Well, be careful what you do. You might”—
Miller, interrupting: “Roberts, who’s that talking?”
Roberts, coming forward politely: “Oh, excuse me! I forgot that you didn’t know each other. Dr. Lawton, Mr. Miller.” Introducing them.
Lawton: “Glad to know you.”
Miller: “Very happy to make your acquaintance, and hope some day to see you. And now, if you have completed your diagnosis”—
Mrs. Curwen: “None of us have ever had it before, doctor; nor any of our families, so far as we know.”
Lawton: “Ha! ha! ha! Very good! Well, just keep quiet. We’ll have you all out of there presently.”
Bemis: “Yes, remain perfectly still.”
Roberts: “Yes, we’ll have you out. Just wait.”
Miller: “You seem to think we’re going to run away. Why shouldn’t we keep quiet? Do you suppose we’re going to be very boisterous, shut up here like rats in a trap?”
