Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My Uncle´s Will: A Comedietta, in One Act A. Sitting-room in a House at Brighton - At back a large Window, facing the Sea, opens on to a Balcony - The time is Evening - The Sea mag be seen sparkling in the Moonlight - As the Curtain rises, Charles Cashmore slowly passes the Window from R. to L., with a cigar in his mouth. Enter Mr Barker, L. H. D. Barker. Charles! (sniffing.) Dear me, a very strong smell of tobacco. Charles! Where can he be? Florence! where is she too, I wonder? They´re not together, that´s all I can be certain of. Was ever such a contradictory couple? Just because a fortune´s left them on condition that they marry, they´ve made up their minds to detest each other. £50,000 left to them if they marry each other, and forfeited by the one who refuses the match. Very strange arrangement, I allow, very strange. A great question whether it will answer, two people bound to each other in this unnatural way! What can come of such a marriage, except misery and Siamese twins? But he always was a strange man, their uncle Stephen, a strange fellow - stood five feet four, but very eccentric. Ah! dear, dear! I shall never look upon his like again. Warm-hearted; but such a cast in his eye! Dear! dear! Well, perhaps its all for the best; for if they both refuse, the money comes to me. Dear me, what a smell of tabacco! Charles! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
