[The warm, friendly smile on her face is her answer—her fraternal declaration—to Yudelson and to Jack]. Well I’ll run along. See you later, Jack. Goodbye, Mr. Yudelson. It was a pleasure to have met you.

Yudelson

By me it’s all right, too!

[Mary goes.]

Jack

[His arm about Yudelson’s shoulder, they move over to the table. Yudelson sits in the chair and Jack lounges on the table leaning on his elbow]. Well, Yudelson, I’m glad to see you. Sit down. What brings you up in this neighborhood?

Yudelson

Jakie, I came to tell you your papa is sick.
