Jerome, Jerome K. (Jerome Klapka), 1859-1927

"The Master of Mrs. Chilvers"


[The DEPUTATION joins SIGSBY by the door. He leads them out.]
ELIZABETH [To PHOEBE.] Are you going my way?
PHOEBE [She glances round at ANNYS.] Yes, I'll come with you.
ST. HERBERT I will put you into a bus, if you will let me. We
don't sport many cabs in East Poplar. [He is helping ELIZABETH
with her cloak.]
ELIZABETH Thank you.
LAMB I've got to go up West. [To GEOFFREY.] Will you be at the
House this evening?
GEOFFREY [He is standing by the desk pretending to look at some
papers]. I shall look in about ten o'clock.
LAMB One or two things I want to say to you. Goodbye for the
present.
GEOFFREY Goodbye!
PHOEBE Goodbye, old man. [She stretches out her hand.]
GEOFFREY Goodbye. [She shakes hands with a smile, exchanges a
casual "goodbye" with ELIZABETH.]
[They go towards the door.]
[SIGSBY re-enters.]
SIGSBY [To LAMB.] Are you going?
LAMB Yes. I'll see you to-morrow morning. About ten o'clock.
SIGSBY I shall be here. [He exchanges a "good afternoon" with the
others.
