[With interest.] Mrs. Wilton?

A very rich woman. You don't know her.

I have heard her name. Mrs. Fanny Wilton, is it not?

Yes, quite right.

Erhart has mentioned her several times. Does she live out here now?

Yes, she has taken a villa here; she moved out from town some time ago.

[With a slight hesitation.] They say she is divorced from her husband.

Her husband has been dead for several years.

Yes, but they were divorced. He got a divorce.

He deserted her, that is what he did. I am sure the fault wasn't hers.
