Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Later, as the three of them were rising from table, they greeted Lute
Desten and Rita Wainwright arriving. Over the billiard table with
Bert, Graham learned that Dick Forrest never appeared for breakfast,
that he worked in bed from terribly wee small hours, had coffee at

twelve-thirty lunch. As for Paula Forrest, Bert explained, she was a
poor sleeper, a late riser, lived behind a door without a knob in a
spacious wing with a rare and secret patio that even he had seen but
once, and only on infrequent occasion was she known to appear before
twelve-thirty, and often not then.
