Lady Kelsey was much pleased, for she was fond of her nephew, and it had pained her that she had not seen him. She had sent a line to tell him that Lucy was no longer engaged, but he had not answered. Lucy wrote the invitation herself. My Dear Bobbie: Aunt Alice will be very glad if you can lunch with us on Tuesday at two. We are asking Dick, Julia Crowley, and Canon Spratte.
Canon Spratte gallantly handed her the box, and gave her a light. 'It's against all my principles, you know, he smiled. 'What is the use of principles except to give one an agreeable sensation of wickedness when one doesn't act up to them? The words were hardly out of her mouth when Dick and Lady Kelsey appeared. 'Dear Mrs. Crowley, you're as epigrammatic as a dramatist, he exclaimed.
Crowley came to sit with Lady Kelsey, and together they watched the minute hand go round the clock. Now the verdict might be expected at any moment. After some time Canon Spratte, the vicar of the church which Lady Kelsey attended, sent up to ask if he might see her; and Mrs. Crowley, thinking to distract her, asked him to come in.
