Read you the letter.' Netta pauses a moment to read a letter held out to her by Mrs Jenkins.
It runs thus:-- 'I can't be with you to-day.

Meet Netta at the appointed place, and walk to Tynewydd.

I will be there with a carriage by six o'clock .-- Yours, H.J.' 'See you, Netta, it isn't six yet.' Mrs Jenkins pulls out a large gold watch, which, while Netta was running on, she has managed to put back half-an-hour.

'Five-and-twenty minutes to six, see you.' Netta turns again and hurries on.
'There is Jones Tynewydd.

If he should see me,' says Netta.
