Diana

Diana Holland is Elizabeth's younger sister. She is known to misbehave, so at the Hayes party she is being followed, but she manages to write a note in the ladies' dressing room and slipped it to Webster Youngham's assistant. Her note said "Cloakroom, one o'clock. Bring ciggies." In the cloakroom, she was looking for her French Lieutenant's coat. She had come dressed as the heroine in her favorite novel, Trilby. She appears for the first time as an artist's model dressed in a petticoat and slippers but of course Diana could not get away with that. She was surprised that she got away with the simple cotton bodice and red-and-white striped skirt she had come in. As the clocked clanged one, she felt the chest of a man and a pair of hands on her hips. She tried not to smile to much as she turned around to face James Haverton because this was the most exciting thing that had happened to her all night. "I hope you brought cigarettes." (pg 25) she said. He told her how much trouble he could get into for doing this, mischief shining in his eyes. she liked that. "You're pretty"(pg 26) he told her. she thought about the facial features she shared with her beautiful sister and how different they looked. She had small features and a round mouth like all the Holland women. but unlike her sister she had dark hair, she liked to think that it added a certain mystery. and her eyes, they were described as vivid. And like her sister she had her mothers chin. she hated her chin. "Oh I'm all right." He handed her a cigarette, "You're more than all right" she asked him if he was an architect was he also an artist? he asked why and she said, "Well to kiss of course."
