Excerpt from Lost: A Drama in Four Acts Mr. Squires. (A bald-headed man, cutting a quill.) Dear me. how my eye-sight is failing! I must put on my specks to do this thing properly! plague take the fly! (Brushing it away.) It will rest on my noddle! (Fighting the fly). If it wasn´t for the looks of the thing, I would wear a wig, just out of spite. Ah! I see you, you reseal. (Makes a dash at the fly and upsets the inkstand.) There now! I´ve done it up brown! (Taking up a sheet of paper, all smeared with ink.) Oh no! It´s all black. (Throws the paper away and wipes off the table.) Well - what a worry this life is anyhow! Where are my speeks? (Looks around for them, and examines his pockets.) Hang it, if I haven´t them at home. Oh my eyes! What shall I do? (Sits down disconsolately and puts his hand up to his brow.) Why, bless me! Here they are - just where they ought to be! That fly! Where is he? That fly has quite upset me - no, the inkstand I meant. (Adjusts his glasses on.) Well, its all in a life time! (Seemingly amused.) Kate. (Enters at that moment, timidly.) Good morning sir! This is an intelligence office - is it not? Squires. (Has risen, and is very polite.) Yes, miss! What can I do for you? Kate. I came to apply for a situation. Can you help me, sir? Squires, That depends, my young lady. Have you ever engaged yourself before? Kate. No, sir! But I am very anxious to do something to help mother. Squires. To be sure you are, dearie! Come in and tell me all about it. Oh, you need not be afraid to trust an old man!
