Crossword-Solution: DUNSFORD 8 letters, 1 clue 🏆 scrabble score: 13

While they ate (Philip had a scone and butter and a cup of chocolate), he discovered that his companion was called Dunsford.

Though Philip made him his butt, he liked him; he was amused by his candour and delighted with his agreeable nature: Dunsford had the charm which himself was acutely conscious of not possessing.

They often went to have tea at a shop in Parliament Street, because Dunsford admired one of the young women who waited.

Dunsford, very shy with women, had never succeeded in getting into conversation with her; and he urged Philip to help him.

Dunsford noticed that a man with sandy hair and a bristly moustache, who looked like a German, was favoured with her attention whenever he came into the shop; and then it was only by calling her two or three times that they could induce her to take their order.
