Katharine simply tells the butler that we'll have twenty-four people to dinner to-morrow night and gives him a list of them.

As they come in, the men at the door address every one correctly--Your Lordship or Your Grace, or what not.

When they are all in, the butler comes to the reception room and announces dinner.

We do the rest.

As every man goes out, the butler asks him if he'll have a glass of water or of grog or a cigar; he calls his car, puts him in it, and that's the end of it.
