Synopsis
Excerpt from Her Ladyships Conscience
And now, my dear Esther, said the Duchess, throwing off her furs and sinking down into an easy chair; tell me exactly what sort of a man he is, and whether you and Mamma like him. I'm simply dying to know; and so is Tammy, if he would only tell the truth; but being a man he pretends he isn't, and sends me to collect news for him, just as if we were lions and jackals instead of husbands and wives.
Lady Esther Wyvern paused for a moment. Um like her elder sister, she was one of those rare women who always think before they Speak. Then she replied slowly Yes, I like him; I decidedly like him, and I think Mamma does, too. But he isn't a bit our sort, you know.
The Duchess nodded. Probably not: but he'll be none the worse for that! Though Mamma will think he is, she added as an afterthought. Now proceed to describe him.
