As if I could mistake Lamarfor Adam
Brant!
If thatstrue, she ought to be put in an asylum!
Youve still got the same beautiful hair, Mother. I hardened myself to expect my own
death and everyone elses, andthink nothing of it. He boasted that you had done one
of the bravest things hed seen inthe war! From inside the house comes the sound of
Orins voice callingsharply Mother! No Mannons allowed was ourpassword,
remember!
He wears abandage around his head high up on his
forehead. At right is a fireplace with a chimneypiece of blackmarble, flanked by two
windows.
I was out of my head so long, everything hasseemed
queer since I came back to earth. Shes worked herself into such astate of grief I

Theressomeone else waiting who will be so glad to
see you. And toimagine for a moment, if he were, hed ever come here to visit! I
suppose Id come to expect he would liveforever.
You simply wouldnt believe it, if I told you some
ofthe things.
Ive been trying to gether to but she wont listen to
me. Lamar, your grandfathers old friend who hasknown me ever since I was a
baby!
Her eyes grow bleak and her mouth tightens to a
thinline.
And allthe mothers and wives and sisters and girls
did the same!
Id be very angry with you if itwerent so
ridiculous! I dont like her and never did but I can imagine worseways of
dying!
The table and chairs which had been at center have
been moved tothe left.
And allthe mothers and wives and sisters and girls
did the same!
If you only hadnt let them take you from me! You
will do Orin more good than anyone, Hazel.
The third hasthe appearance of a prosperous
shipowner of Colonial days.
It was part of mytraining as a soldier under
him.
Youve hardly spoken a word since youmet me.
Honestly, Vinnie, I call that carrying your everlastingsquabble with Mother a bit
too far!
We mustnt let Orincome under her influence again.
The time of the opening of this act precedes by a few moments thatof the end of the
previous act.
