MRS. TIMBRELL. Edward, let us think over this a little more. Let us try to see things more clearly.
TIMBRELL. Where is Edgar? What’s he doing?
MARY. Oh! send me away and be done. I don’t want to make trouble.
TIMBRELL. [Loudly.] Edgar! Where is Edgar? [Voices are heard outside. EDGAR enters with the Bible.]
TIMBRELL. What’s that? Who’s there? What have you been doing?
EDGAR. It’s Ada and—it’s Ada.
LEONARD. Better stop up the keyhole, sir, if you wish these rites to be secret.
MRS. TIMBRELL. Oh! be quiet, Leonard.
LEONARD. I must keep up my spirits somehow, Mother.
TIMBRELL. [Loudly.] Ada! And is Sheila there? Come in. [They enter immediately.]
