“Reggie, do you remember Wildacre?”
It was with this apparently simple question that Arthur Blathwayte rang up the curtain on the drama of my life.
That the performance was late in beginning I cannot but admit. I was fully forty-two; an age at which the drama of most men’s lives, are over—or, at any rate, well on in the third act. But in my uneventful existence there had been no drama at all; not even an ineffective love-affair that could be dignified by the name of a “curtain-raiser.”
