Dunn drops again in chair as Hattie goes R. taking off gloves, etc., etc.; Corney enters L. C.
Dunn. So am I—I’d have given a hundred pounds to have been with you.
Corn. (C., taking off gloves) Hundred pounds! Oh, come! What for?
Dunn. Wh—er——It’s a favourite play of mine.
Corn. (crossing to L.) Pygmalion and Galatea?
Dunn. Was that it?
Corn. Yes! Lovely girl, Galatea. Never saw anything like her as the Statue.
Dunn. (starting up) Statue! What’s the matter with the Statue? (rushing to screen, meets Carrie, who enters L. C., coming front screen) Eh! Ha! Ha! And did you enjoy it, Carrie?
Car. (R. C.) Very much, Peter! (Helen enters L. C., remains up C.)
Dunn. (wild and exhausted with worry) Ah! How interesting those old legends are; how beautiful the revive—animating—of the Statue! And if you were told of such a wonder now-a-days, you—you wouldn’t believe it perhaps.
