CRAIG’S WIFE
101
Craig
- What would I be arrested for?
Mrs. Craig
- Why, in connection with this thing, of course. (Taking a step towards him) The Police are looking for you; you know that, don’t you?
Craig
- Who says the Police are looking for me?
Mrs. Craig
- Two of them have just left here, not five minutes ago.
Craig
- Policemen?
Mrs. Craig
- They said they were from Police Headquarters; that’s all I know.
Craig
- And what are they looking for me for?
Mrs. Craig
- Well, now, why de you suppose they’re looking for you, Walter?
Craig
- I don’t know.
Mrs. Craig
- Doesn’t it say in the paper there that you were seen leaving Passmore’s at twelve o’clock last night?
Craig
- It doesn’t say that I was seen leaving there.
Mrs. Craig
- It says there was a man seen leaving there, and who else could it have been but you? You were out there, weren’t you?
