As a child Muriel used to yearn for one, even went to the length of painting one of her father’s (for which trouble followed) and pretending to be blind, so she found it hard to understand why Peter denied himself this covetable prop, eligible for it as he was. He walked with an air of patient gravity along the platform, arm in arm with a mossy young man, drearily clad, who had befriended him in the railway carriage. The young man, Peter told her as they left the station, had a speech impediment and worked as a medium in Kent.‘He took it up after his mother “went into spirit”.’Muriel told Peter that she would like to go into spirit.‘Don’t talk twaddle Muriel. You’ll triumph.’Peter was very pleased to see Monopoly. He was easy to be with and Muriel rejoiced that he had sensed her need for his company and knew that he would not crow, despite his disapproval past and present, concerning truck with Roger.He had, indeed, come because he sensed that Muriel needed help but had come, too, because he missed her.
