CRAIG’S WIFE
89
Catelle
- I thought I’d like to speak to Mr. Craig first, but I don’t suppose it makes a great deal of difference.
Mrs. Craig
- I thought he might be over at the garage—I wanted him myself a few minutes ago; but the maid says he isn’t over there.
Catelle
- Well, I’ll tell you what it is I wanted to see him about, Mrs. Craig. I suppose you’ve seen in the evening paper about this unfortunate affair out here on Willows Avenue?
Mrs. Craig
- You mean that shooting affair?
Catelle
- Yes, at the Passmore home.
Mrs. Craig
- Yes, isn’t that a dreadful thing!—I’ve just been reading it here.
Catelle
- Yes, it’s a very sad affair.
Mrs. Craig
- They’re both dead, aren’t they?
Catelle
- Yes, they’re both dead.
Mrs. Craig
- Isn’t that terrible. That’s what I wanted to see my husband for; I wanted to ask him if he knew that man.
Catelle
- He probably did; they’re pretty well known people here in town.
