Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Spy: A Revolutionary War Play in Four Acts (Scene, Living Room at the Haywood Home. As the curtain rises Mrs. H. is sitting at table, center, sewing. Susan busy paring apples.) Susan. Mother, haven´t cousin Nancy and Uncle Peter come yet? Mrs. H. No, dear. Uncle Peter left just after breakfast and its almost five o´clock but they are not here yet. Poor little girl, it will be a long, hard ride for her. I will brew her a cup of herbs for I´m sure she´ll be utterly fatigued when she arrives. They ought to be here at any moment now. Susan. I do think its a shame, when Dorothy just came yesterday to make me a nice little visit, for uncle John to consider it safer for Nancy to be with us than way over there where the British haven´t been for months. Why couldn´t she have waited a week or two? Mrs. H. Why, Susan! I´m heartily ashamed of you. In these troublesome war times you know it is much safer for your cousin Nancy to be with us than twelve miles from the public highway with servants. Your uncle John knows best and I´m sure if your father were alive he would insist upon it. Besides, my dear, Nancy is four years your junior and will not disturb you and Dorothy in the least I´m sure. (Enter Dorothy. Susan rushes at her affectionately.) Mrs. H. Come in my dear. I was just going to tell Susan of her cousin´s affliction. Her father wrote me that she had a bad fall last autumn and that it injured her brain. Although the poor child never suffers, her mind is weak and she is very childish, so you girls must be kind to her.
