BRIAN
Ay, let's go.
CONN (at door) I never forget, I never forget. The Granard Feis is as fresh in my mind as the day I played at it. Shawn Heffernan, indeed! I never forget. I never forget.
Conn Hourican and Brian MacConnell go out.

CURTAIN
ACT II
The next day: The scene is as in previous Act. It is now in the forenoon. Maire Hourican is seated at the fire in a listless attitude. Anne is busy at the dresser. Maire rises.
MAIRE
We shouldn't have stayed at Moynihan's so late.
ANNE Indeed it would have been better to go home, but I was sure that Brian MacConnell would come in.
MAIRE Well, it was his own loss if he didn't come. Maybe there was one there that I liked better.
