THE PRIME MINISTER
103
Doctor.
Let them stay there. You told them to send
Margaret in to us as soon as she came?
Otto.
Yes.
One of the Men. But will she come?
Fritz. Certainly she will.
Second Man. How long has she been in the house of the British Minister?
Fritz.
Two months to-morrow.
Second Man.
What have you heard from her in the meantime?
Fritz.
Nothing.
Others.
Nothing at all?
Fritz.
We're not worrying about that. Margaret has
been awaiting her chance—watching her opportunity.
First Man.
Then how do you know she'll come back to-night?
Fritz.
Her brother saw her this morning. She gave him
her promise.
