He lives with you?

Mrs. Schiller.
Yes, indeed he does.

The International Telegraphic Agency?

Mrs. Schiller.
Certainly.

Inspector.
[Looking round at gentleman.] H'm! And the young man Otto, who has just gone out? Is he another son?

No, a nephew. Son of my husband's brother.

Husband's brother—does he live here also?

Mrs. Schiller.
I wish he did, poor soul!
