At last we talked it out to the practical pitch, and Crupp and Shoesmith, and I and Gane, made our definite agreement together.... I emerged from enormous silences upon Margaret one evening. She was just back from the display of some new musicians at the Hartsteins. I remember she wore a dress of golden satin, very rich-looking and splendid.
