[And Steven Carley enters Left. He is a slender, smooth-shaven, young-old looking man, his voice and body almost vibrating with nerve; a personality that so often appeals to the tenderness in women, while it irritates men. He brings his hat and

Steven. Hello, Sam!

Coast. Morning!

Steven. Many happy returns, Georgy.

Georgiana. Oh, no, thank you! It's not for me yet, thank goodness!

Philip. Now let's play hide and seek.

The Children. Hide and seek!

Lizzie. [Entering Left.] Excuse me, please. Mrs. Jackson's maid is here for Miss Elaine.
