I caught a glimpse of Miss Tomalin somewhere or other, sternly chaperoned." He lied gaily, for the talk with May had put him into a thoroughly blithe humour.
"I should so like to see her," said Iris.

"Don't you think you could point her out, if we went about a little." "Let us look for her by all means.

Have you been to the supper-room?
She may be there." They turned to move slowly towards the staircase.

Before reaching the door, they were met by Mrs.Toplady, at her side the gentleman who had been Miss Bride's companion downstairs.
"How fortunate!" exclaimed the hostess to Mrs.Woolstan.

"I so want you to know Miss Tomalin, and Mr.Rossendale can take us to her." Iris voiced her delight, and looked at Lashmar, inviting him to come too.
