Cotillion

42 Who says this to whom and where: "If someone would have the good-sense to inform me whether I am assisting at a tragedy or a farce I should be grateful," he said sardonically.: Jack Westruther addressing the company just after the arrival of Freddy Standen on the scene when Dolph tried to hide again

77 X, a sportsman and a gentleman, abandoned the pursuit of unworthy game, shut his snuff-box with a snap, restored it to his pocket, and said in quite another voice: "In Dun Territory, Y?": Lord Legerwood (X) addressing Freddy Standen (Y) on the subject of his getting engaged

214 When she learned that her ladyship contented herself with a much lighter diet, she exclaimed at it, and X blessed herself to think that she should keep a better table than a baroness.: Mrs. Scorton has been asking Kitty about Lady Buckhaven's (Meg, X) dinners

261 "You have wondered what, dear X?" prompted Y, with deceptive sweetness. "Only that--Such a very handsome man, and of the first style of elegance! Air and address everything that they should be!" faltered X.: Kitty Charing (Y) talking to Miss Fishguard (X) about the handsome man, Jack Westruther

277 "I had an uncle who got soaked to the skin once. Had an inflamation of the lungs. Dead as a herring within the week.": Freddy Standen talking to Kitty

328 Name as many novels as you can in which houses are broken into in the course of the action. The common law definition of breaking and entering involves entering at night with felonious intent, but I am willing to waive both those requirements. I do, however, require that the break-in involve someone entering a house stealthily, and in an unconventional manner. Forcing one's way in past the servants does not count. Nor does breaking into an office or a hotel. I mean someone's residence. Each novel counts only as one answer, even if there's more than one break-in.: Kitty sneaks into her uncle's house after meeting Freddy
