Excerpt from The Marriage of Mr. Merivale
"There! Ted is out! I knew he would do something like that soon - but - what a stroke!"
Muriel Bowness flung down her scoring-book, and whilst her cry of disgust was being echoed, in various degrees of sincerity, by the crowd of ladies and cricketers who were gathered round the tea-table under the old trees of the Park, she, heart and soul in the game, with an earnest gesture of despair, looked up appealingly at Arthur Merivale. He had risen from the seat at her side, had laid aside his blazer, and was quietly buttoning on his batting gloves.
