WALES (_over_ L.). That's perfectly fair. CROSBY. You've been at her séances, or whatever they call them, before? WALES. Yes. CROSBY. In the dark? WALES. Invariably. CROSBY. I may want light. (_He turns to his son._) Billy, if I call for lights you give them to me. Don't wait for anything. Understand? WILLIAM. Perfectly, dad. (WILLIAM _goes up to small table_ R. _of chesterfield. Brings table with lamp on it down to his chair and the chair next to it in the circle_.) CROSBY (_still in circle._) That's all right then. (_The door_ L. _opens_. MRS. CROSBY _enters, followed by_ MADAME LA GRANGE _and the other ladies_. WALES _moves to_ R.C. _outside circle_, STANDISH _to upper end of table_ R., TRENT _to_ L. _side of circle_.) MRS. CROSBY. I think it wasn't fair of us. ROSALIE. Oh, madame, I did not mind. |
