What
do
you
want
done
with
the
body
,
Miss
O'Neill
?
"
Body
!
He
was
a
body
,
and
they
could
n't
even
say
his
body
,
they
had
to
say
the
body
.
Dane
,
my
Dane
.
He
is
a
body
.
"
Next
of
kin
?
"
she
heard
her
voice
asking
,
thin
and
faint
,
torn
by
those
great
gasps
.
"
I
'm
not
Dane
's
next
of
kin
.
My
mother
is
,
I
suppose
.
"
There
was
a
pause
.
"
This
is
very
difficult
,
Miss
O'Neill
.
If
you
're
not
the
next
of
kin
,
we
've
wasted
valuable
time
.
"
The
polite
sympathy
gave
way
to
impatience
.
"
You
do
n't
seem
to
understand
there
's
a
revolution
going
on
in
Greece
and
the
accident
happened
in
Crete
,
even
more
remote
and
hard
to
contact
.
Really
!
Communication
with
Athens
is
virtually
impossible
and
we
have
been
instructed
to
forward
the
next
of
kin
's
personal
wishes
and
instructions
regarding
the
body
immediately
.
Is
your
mother
there
?
May
I
speak
to
her
,
please
?
"
"
My
mother
's
not
here
.
She
's
in
Australia
.
"
"
Australia
?
Lord
,
this
gets
worse
and
worse
!
Now
we
'll
have
to
send
a
cable
to
Australia
;
more
delays
.
If
you
are
not
the
next
of
kin
,
Miss
O'Neill
,
why
did
your
brother
's
passport
say
you
were
?
"
"
I
do
n't
know
,
"
she
said
,
and
found
she
had
laughed
.
"
Give
me
your
mother
's
address
in
Australia
;
we
'll
cable
her
at
once
.
We
have
to
know
what
to
do
with
the
body
!
By
the
time
cables
get
back
and
forth
,
this
will
mean
a
twelve-hour
delay
,
I
hope
you
realize
that
.
It
's
going
to
be
difficult
enough
without
this
mix-up
.
"
"
Phone
her
,
then
.
Do
n't
waste
time
with
cables
.
"
"
Our
budget
does
not
extend
to
international
phone
calls
,
Miss
O'Neill
,
"
said
that
stiff
voice
.
"
Now
,
will
you
please
give
me
your
mother
's
name
and
address
?
