Prologue-The Horton Manners' drawing-room
TWO hours elapse after the Prologue when the following incidents begin to take place :-
A gipsy camp-fire concert on Epsom Downs is suddenly interrupted by a motor accident, which leads to the meeting of Cissie Sutton , an actress, and Freddie Longrove , a man about town, and, quite as important, the discovery of Hump, by George Lynwood , the hero.
Three months later the various characters in the story meet at the famous Tomato Inn at Epsom on the eve of Derby Day.
Finally we come to 2.30 p.m. on Derby Day, and all the characters foregather in the Epsom Grand Stand a few minutes before the start.
