I suppose the fare is always the

same?

Straight before you, Sir.

In about ten minutes.

Yes, Sir, which isit?

Rather more than twenty leagues.

We are due at ten o' clock.

Certain ly, Madam, there is rather too

much draught.

Oh ! no, it is the express.

It is very tiresome travelling by those

trains, they stop at every station.

Yes, very fast indeed, and accidents

are fréquent.

Only on arriving.

Yes, direct from Charing Cross.

This evening, I hope.

Twenty one miles only.

Justso.

To morrow morning at three o'clock.

Yes, when the wind is favorable.

At two o' clock.

Ten shillings first and six second.

No, Sir, it is included in the fare.

As you like, now or on landing.

Yes, it is a set price.
