K:
Hello.
B:
Henry. How are you?
K:
Mac. How are you?
B:
It's Bill.
K:
Oh, Bill. How are you?
B:
I'm fine, except that I bring you the very sad news that Ham died

K:

B:
We don't know yet, Henry. I'll let you know as quickly as we know.

that sort, but let's leave that for the press.
K:

B:
Right. And your speech was first-class - my friend.
K:
Thank you, my friend.
