Is it not a pleasure for me,
as I am drawing near the goal...
1:36:05
...to find my home such a happy one...
1:36:08
...my wife so fond of me, that she is even
now thinking of appointing a successor?
1:36:12
Isn't it a comfort to see her
like a prudent housewife...
1:36:15
...getting everything ready
for my departure?
1:36:19
I hope you're not thinking of leaving us,
Sir Charles?
1:36:25
Not so soon as you may fancy, perhaps.
1:36:28
I've been given over many times
these four years.
1:36:32
And there was always
a candidate or two...
1:36:35
...waiting to apply for the situation.
1:36:38
I'm sorry for you, Mr. Barry.
1:36:39
It grieves me to keep you
or any gentleman waiting.
1:36:42
Had you not better arrange
with my doctor...
1:36:45
...or have the cook flavour my omelette
with arsenic, eh?
1:36:49
What are the odds, gentlemen,
that I live to see Mr. Barry hang yet?
1:36:57
Sir, let those laugh that win.
1:37:03
Gentlemen.
1:37:25
I'll get a surgeon.
1:37:31
Have some brandy, Sir Charles.
1:37:34
From a report in
The Saint James' Chronicle:
1:37:38
"Died at Spa in Belgium...
1:37:41
"...Sir Charles Reginald Lyndon...
1:37:45
"...Knight of the Bath,
Member of Parliament...
1:37:48
"...and for many years...
1:37:50
"...His Majesty's Representative
at various European Courts.
1:37:55
"He has left behind him a name
which is endeared to all his friends. "
