Good-bye for the present.

Come often and see us and look upon me--I must be fifteen years older than you are--What, _twenty-four_?
Impossible! You don't look a day older than twenty--in fact, if you hadn't told me you'd been in South Africa--However as I was saying, look on me as _in loco parentis_ while you _are_ in London.

I'll show you the way out into the hall.
Shall they call you a cab?
No?
You're quite right.

It's a splendid night for January.

Where do you live?
Here, write it down in my address book....
