Lee. Hush! I’m going to stay here! Did you ever hear such luck?
Peter. Never! Where am I going to sleep? In the shade of the pump in the back yard?
Lee (glancing uneasily toward stairs). No, I’ll try to get you up-stairs for to-night. The landlady seems to be alone here and she will never know the difference.
Peter (going to table). And you had some eats! Do you know what h-o-g spells?
Lee. Hush! Will you? Here! (Opens door, L., cautiously and looks out.) Get in here out of sight! (Peter grabs some food from table.) Now, don’t move until I say the word. (Pushes him toward door.)
Peter (as he exits L.). Sure! Fido doesn’t come till he’s called.
Enter Cyn., by stairs.
Cyn. It’s all right, Mr. Gordon. I’ll get you some towels and then you can go right up.
(She exits R. Lee rushes to door, L., and pulls Peter into room.)
Lee. Pete! Quick!
