CHAPTER 1X Brenton Meets Sonia

The opening of the Cheriton |Theatre was an event in the ellfe -of the little town.

The play was fairly well known ‘and many of the audience had seen lit cilher on the stage or in its film lform. It was amusing in patches Iimd the plot was sufficiently taut Ho lin-ld everyone‘; interest. From Fthe viewpoint of the company, now-

ever, it provided most of them with an‘ adml-rabie opportunity of show- ing thnt they could cci. Haslett {did his hcst not Io steal the play, but his butler was as polished a liil ol acting 11s one was likely to sec. Linda Keen and Raymond lMurray were the leads and _ln the ‘big sccne nt the end of the second intit brought down the house. while i M- ry Rossziii, who was nearer sixty than fifty. brought a pi-ofessrmal and experienced touch to her part which delighted those who. in spitt- of the cinema, could still recognize Mal acting Wil€n they saw It.

Sonia Pctaiiol, perhaps. was a little disappointing. More than nny of the gihers. she betczyed "nerves."

At the second trick he might well halve cashed at least one club, ruffed ra club. ruffed a heart. and then ruffed another club. At this point he would see for himself that East was out of clubs. and no-w it would be simple indeed to lead dummy‘; last iriunp.

As it happened, this W115 the case. and on winning the trick 168st would be conclusively "lIOOlKPG" for a safe (xii play.

The entire company had been invited. together with the stage carpenter" and chief electrician. The Vicar was there. a little uneasy at _Ihc occasion. the place and the time, but delighted with Raymond's suc- cess. He was talking earnestly to Mary Barnweil.
