From Dr. Jonathan by Winston Churchill

I've had letters from him. (AUGUSTA: Since he went to France?) Yes. AUGUSTA (after a pause). I've never approved of Dr. Findar employing you here. I warned him against you--I told him that you would betray his kindness as you betrayed mine, but he wouldn't listen to me. I told him that a girl who was capable of drawing my son into an intrigue while she was a member of the church and of my Bible class, a girl who had the career you had in Newcastle, couldn't become a decent and trustworthy woman. The very fact that you had the audacity to come back to Foxon Falls and impose on Dr. Pindar's simplicity, proves it.
