It is the 1920s and the Kings Messenger the Reverend Thomas Paxton is conducting
one of his popular tours of the Continent. This scene takes place is Switzerland where a member of the Reverend's party,
Agatha Salt, is introduced to a German Gentleman.
"Mr Paxton took Beatie and me by the lake and we met this gentleman. Mr Paxton started to talk to him in German
and then he introduced us to him. And do you know what he did girls? He bowed and clicked his heels and he kissed
my hand."
