But by the time he had reached the riverside street to which his steps were directed, even a chance passer-by was a rarity; and the gas-lamps had become so few and far between that no notice would have been taken of him if the traffic had been greater. His footsteps echoed in the silent street until he reached the wooden door which was the entrance by night to Plumtree Wharf.
The AIDE finished pairing his couples. 'Mrs Gildea, you're to go in with the Warden of the University. Of course you know Dr Plumtree? Mr McKeith, the Governor will be so glad to meet you. Will you take in Lady Bridget O'Hara? She's not down yet. You see, he explained again to Mrs Gildea, 'we're strictly official to-night and Debrett's out of it. 'So am I, put in Colin McKeith.

But except as it concerns Lady Bridget and McKeith, the Tallant's first dinner-party at Government House is not of special importance in this story.

Max had to ask his way more than once before he reached the Plumtree Wharf, the entrance to which was through a door in a high wooden fence. Rather to his surprise, he found the door unfastened and unguarded. And when he had got through he looked round and asked himself what on earth he had expected to find there.
