The porter, who was a different one from the one who had been on duty during the day, hailed him a Hansom cab.
Trevor’s trunks were attached to it with ropes and they drove off to The Gaiety Theatre.
The crowd outside the stage door was enormous and one or two of the women seemed to recognise Trevor.
They all stared curiously at Angela and, because she was shy, she almost ran through the stage door.
She could hear lively music coming from the orchestra.
Just as she and Trevor entered the theatre, a crowd of girls whose costumes consisted mostly of feathers came hurrying off the stage.
They ran up the stairs and, seeing Trevor, one of them shouted,
“Hallo, Baronet! We missed you in your usual seat.”
Angela looked at Trevor enquiringly.
“Do you come here every night?” she asked him.
