‘But how did you come to injure your hands, Miss Cherrington?’

‘Oh, I did that at Anchorstone Hall. It was just a game, rather a rough game, too rough for my brother Eustace, so I played instead of him.’

‘But didn’t he attend to your hands afterwards?’

‘Oh no, he left that to Lady Nelly Staveley—a society woman. She did her best, of course, but it wasn’t the way a professional would have done it.’

‘We sincerely hope you’ll recover the use of, at any rate, one of your hands, Miss Cherrington—otherwise, of course, we shall be obliged——’

‘Oh, I’m sure I shall, if you give me time.’
