- A born New Yorker?
- No, no. I was born in Baltimore. 1908, July the 6th. I'm 30.
- Baltimore. I used to have a lot of good friends in Baltimore. Let me see. The Whites, the Clarence-Whites.

- I don't believe I ever did.

- I'm afraid not.
- Let me see, Colonel Evans, old Philip Evans.
- No.
- No, I haven't been there in some years, and, well, I wouldn't know them anyway.
