"You had best come in," said Anton, stepping back.  "But I have no more to
tell you than I already to Mar ... Miss Mauberley, Mr Skeffington-Nottle and
Mr Drake.  I played the piano in the dark - I step outside to smoke a
cigarette - I go back and play once more - and I realise that she is on the
couch, that she is dead."

Richard stepped in. He waved his hand at Anton. "Oh, I'm not here as a
questioner. We have people for that, obviously. I was simply in hailing
distance..." He thought a moment. "You... wouldn't happen to be aware of
where Mr. Fitzroy was when you were taking a break?"
