Eleanor: First of all I must begin by saying communicating through time is new to me. Hopefully, 1908 will be friendly to 2015. Secondly, interviewing British royalty is a thrill. Welcome Your Lordship.
Trevor: Thank you. It is a pleasure to speak over time, but I’m not royalty. I believe the correct term is gentry. I’m a member of the royal court, or I was, but not related to King Edward VII or his cousins.
Eleanor: Oh, well then, let’s begin at the beginning. Where were you born?
Trevor: Birchmere Halls, County Kent in 1880.
Eleanor: Birchmere Halls? Is that your family’s home?
Trevor: Ah, I need to remember that you’re an American. No, my family seat is Warrenwood Park. Birchmere Halls was our family’s favorite retreat from the smells and sounds of city life. London can be…well, interesting.
Eleanor: (Laughs) It still is. What exactly do you …do? I mean for a living?
Trevor: Do? Oh, are you referring to insuring an income for substantial existence?
Eleanor: Yes, I think I am. However, for now…
Enough!
