How do we contact Isobel? How will she get back?
-
One thing at a time. I'll ring the War Office in the morning.
-
Maybe they know she's out there. Perhaps she's with him now.
-
They wouldn't have sent a telegram here
-
and she'd have rung.
-
No, it's the usual balls- usual mess-up, I'm afraid.
-
Beg pardon, m'lord,
-
but we're all very anxious to know the news.
-
Yes, of course.
-
It appears that a few days ago, Captain Crawley was wounded.
-
It's serious, I'm afraid, but he's alive
-
and on his way home to the hospital in the village.
