Mrs. Bradley. After eleven? Dear me! I had no idea it was as lateas that. How time flies when you are enjoying yourself! Really,Edward, you ought not to have overlooked the time. You know--

Bradley. I supposed you knew we couldn't pull a house down in fiveminutes.

Perkins. What's become of the clock?

Mrs. Perkins. I don't know. Who took the clock out?

Barlow. I did. It's under the dining-room table.

Mrs. Bradley. Well, we mustn't keep Bessie up another moment. Good-night, my dear. We have had a delightful time.
