| Description: | Patricia Brent is a guest, damned by the pre-fix "paying," at the Galvin House Residential Hotel. One day she overhears two of her fellow "guests" pitying her for her loneliness and that she "never has a nice young man to take her out." In a thoughtless moment of anger she announces that on the following night she is dining at the Quadrant with her fiance. She wasn't, and she hadn't, but she did. When in due course she enters the grill-room and finds some of Galvin House-ites there to watch her. Rendered reckless by the thought of being found out, she goes up to a table at which is seated a young staff-officer, and asks him to help her by "playing up." This is how she meets Lieut-Col. Lord Peter Bowen, D.S.O. Then follow the complications that ensue from Patricia's thoughtless act. [Suggest a different description.] |
