FALVEY i-n-t-e-r-w-e-i-n—
DEVLIN
No. That's not right. We had better call Bill
Driscoll. Are you there, Bill?
[Enter Driscoll.
DRISCOLL
What's the matter?
DEVLIN
We want you to spell "introducing."
DRISCOLL (wiping a pint measure)
With pleasure. (Confidently) i-n-t-u-r-d-e-w-c-i-n-g.
DEVLIN
Are you sure that is right?
DRISCOLL Of course I am. What do you think I went to school for?
DEVLIN Very well, I'll take your word for it. But stay here awhile, because we may want your assistance soon again. This is an important matter, and we must give all our attention to it. I have the honor and likewise the unprecedented and the great pleasure of introducing to you a cousin of my own on my mother's side, one Barney Falvey. He is a man of many and n-e-w-m-e-r-o-w-s. (To Driscoll) Isn't that right?
DRISCOLL
That's all right. Proceed.
DEVLIN —numerous a-c-o-m-p-l-i-s-h-m-e-n-t-s. That sounds wrong, doesn't it?
