See, I thought something

like that might happen.

You know it's an awful strain on

girl, breaking off her engagement.

Even if she wants to.

She broke it off?

It takes a lot of energy to do that

to a persistent man like Ted.

I hadn't heard she'd broke it off.

Well of course she wouldn't discuss such

personal matter with you, Mr Fellowes.

Why did she break it off?

What's my sister saying?

Why did she break if off?

Well, Anne didn't love him, Mr Fellowes.

Then why in the world ..

Well you see, Mr Fellowes ..

Anne fell in love with a gentleman.

It wouldn't be right to mention

the party's name. He has a wife.

So she thought it best to marry somebody

else, and put temptation out of her way.

I'm telling you this, Mr Fellowes.

Because she's pretty broken up about it.

As you're her employer I thought you may

be able to talk to her sympathetically.

Thanks.

I'll try.

Anne.

It's time to clean up, Mr Fellowes.

It is!

Anne home yet?

Say, it's one o'clock. What does

this guy Fellowes think he's doing?

I hate to tell you but

I bet he's good at it.

What's that?

It's a dime.

Oh shucks. What's a dime ..?

I suppose you think I'm crazy

bringing you down here t this hour.

There isn't a lovelier spot on earth.

The moon at this quarter looks

different to what I expected.

Well .. what did you expect, dear?

Will you do something for me, Larry?

Anything in the world.

Then let me pick out

your next secretary.
