- Edith: Mary, what's the matter?
- Mary Huntley: Why nothing, Edith.
- Edith: Oh, yes there is. And what's more, it's about Jim. I've known ever since I arrived on this visit something was wrong. And just because I'm Jim's cousin, there's no reason why you shouldn't tell me.
- Mary Huntley: You're right, Edith. It's Jim. He doesn't understand me. I've always advised women not to talk about their private troubles. But somehow with you it's different.
- Edith: Of course it is, Dear. Why, we've known each other for years. Why, you're like a sister to me.
- Mary Huntley: Jim's wonderful; just wonderful.
- Edith: But he doesn't understand.
- Mary Huntley: Five years, Edith. Five years I've stood it.
- Edith: Yes, Dear. Tell me.
- Mary Huntley: Romance has gone. And when you've lost that, I'd just as soon be dead.
- Edith: Of course.
- Mary Huntley: I'll be getting old soon. I'm not going to stand it. Jim and I have come to the end. I'm going away somewhere. Anywhere.
- Mary Huntley: Oh Pat, how far you said the Cabin was ?
- Maj. Pat Lovering: About 30 miles, as the crow flies.
- Mary Huntley: And how far in this thing
- Maj. Pat Lovering: Oh about 45 miles.
- Mary Huntley: I wish I had taken the crow.
