    Summary

    "I must have a streak of my father in me. He was one of the old school -- you either faced a fence of your own accord or were walloped over and non nonsense. It worked -- after a fashion. One learnt to pretend one wasn't a coward, and take out the change in bad dreams."

    "You certainly don't show any signs of it."

    "One of these days you'll find me out, I expect."
