It's the brave weather for the crops this.
John Graeme.
Indeed we should be deeply thankful for the marcies vouchsafed us.
Solemnly.
Aye indeed.
William John Granahan.
Well indeed I would be that myself, only the half o' them young chickens goin' off with the gapes. It was a tarr'ble to do to save what's left o' them.
Mrs. Granahan.
Oh well. Its all in the way o' Providence, Mr. Graeme.
She looks disapprovingly across at Granahan. The two men seat themselves. John Graeme beside table and Wm. Granahan on edge of table next him.
