Mrs. AnsleyI-yes Mrs. Slade And the Colosseums even colder and damper. Mrs. Ansley The Colosseum-? Mrs. SladeYes. It wasnt easy to get in, after the gates were locked for the night. Far from easy. Still, in those days it could be managed it was managed, often. Lovers met there who couldnt meet eslewhere. You knew that? Mrs. Ansley I-I daresay. I dont remember.
