Excerpt from Scandal a Novel "By Jove, there's Beatrix Vanderdyke!" "Why not?" "What on earth is she doing in New York at this time of year?" There was a laugh and a shrug. "If it comes to that, my dear fellow, what on earth are we doing in New York at this time of year? Anyway, I'm not interested." "I am. She's with that unpleasant brute, Sutherland York again. I wish to Heaven she wouldn't go about with a second-rate portrait painter who only gets commissions by licking peoples boots, or any other man, for the matter of that, at this time of night." Pelham Franklin laughed. "I'm sorry I can't squeeze up any interest in Miss Vanderdyke, " he said. "I've seen her going into York's studio round about midnight several times, but it's her life. She has to lead it. There's no accounting for tastes, you know. You and I, for instance, have a penchant for the Ziegfeld Follies. I vote we walk, it's a little cooler now."
