about to leave for (модель be about + infinitive: After hearing strange sounds for many months, in autumn 1976 they saw the ghost, an elderly man dressed in an Edwardian-style brown tweed suit, standing leaning against the mantelpiece. They also saw him wearing a bowler and carrying a cane or umbrella under his arm. Looking like a businessman about to leave for the office, he tipped his hat and walked through the closed door.
