It s Brooks right enough Mr. Bullsom exclaimed. I called at his office yesterday and they told me that he was out for the day. Well that licks me. Mary who was reading a magazine in a secluded corner looked up. I saw Mr. Brooks in the morning she remarked. He told me that he was going to Enton to dine and sleep. Selina looked at her cousin sharply. You saw Mr. Brooks she repeated. Where I met him Mary answered coolly. He told me that Lord Arranmore had been very kind to him. Why didn t you tell us Louise asked. I really didn t think of it Mary answered. It didn t strike me as being anything extraordinary. Not when he s coming here to dine to-night Selina repeated and is a friend of papa s Why Mary what nonsense. I really don t see anything to make a fuss about Mary said going back to her magazine. Mr. Bullsom drew himself up and laid down the paper with the paragraph uppermost. Well it is most gratifying to think that I gave that young man his first start he remarked.
