Ruth
Authorship not stated
You play Ruth Hilton, apprentice to a dressmaker, mending Lady Guest's torn flounce in a screened corner of a crowded ball. Henry Bellingham, a guest who came looking for a dropped glove, lingers to talk with you, and Mrs Mason marks the attention as trouble worth watching. When the last carriage leaves and rain floods the street, Bellingham walks you home beneath his umbrella rather than let you go alone. Mrs Mason is waiting at the lodging-house door past midnight.
