Scorn of Women: A Play In Three Acts

by Jack London

MRS. McFEE

(With more than usual asperity.)

And how comes it Mr. Prince should know the children of sin and still be company for decent bodies?

MRS. EPPINGWELL

Because he is a man, I imagine.

(Mrs. McFee snorts.)

There is Sitka Charley. I suppose you would bar him if he wanted to come?

MRS. MCFEE

(Judicially.)

Why, no, he's a verra good soul.
