    He's spending time in the country to try to cure his nerves.  Vera, unfortunately, picks up on this little quirk of Framton's and takes advantage of his bad nerves by telling him a frightening story of people going on the hunting trip and not returning.   She tells Framton that her aunt keeps the window open in hopes that the men will someday return from their trip, so  - thinking the aunt has lost touch with reality - Framton tries to avoid talking about the whole hunting thing to her.
