I'm afraid I've made rather a mess of things...You distrusted me from the beginning. Are you going to let them hang me?
Howard
What do you mean by that, Leslie?
Leslie
You could get the letter.
Howard
Do you think it's so easy to do away with unwelcome evidence?
Leslie
Surely, nothing would have been said to us - if the owner weren't quite prepared to sell it.
Howard
That's true. But I'm not prepared to buy it.
