) You'll be
fighting over there, the pair of you, for freedom. Have an eye on him,
Sir, if you can,--give him some good advice.
GEORGE (his hand on BERT'S shoulder). Bert can take care of himself, I
guess. I'll be needing the advice!

CURTAIN.
ACT II
SCENE:
A fairly large room in DR. JONATHAN's house in Foxon Falls, which
has been converted into a laboratory. The house antedates the
PINDAR mansion, having been built in the first decade of the
nineteenth century, and though not large, has a certain distinction
and charm. The room has a panelled wainscoting and a carved wooden
mantel, middle left, painted white, like the doors. Into the
fireplace is set a Franklin stove. The windows at the rear have
small panes; the lower sashes are raised; the tops of the hollyhocks
and foxgloves in the garden bed may be seen above the window sills,
and the apple trees beyond. Under the windows is a long table, on
which are chemical apparatus. A white enamelled sink is in the rear
right corner. The walls are whitewashed, the wooden floor bare. A
door, left, in the rear, leads into DR. JONATHAN'S office; another,
middle right, into a little front hall.
