JAMES RYAN. It is a pity, indeed, you ever did.
BARTLEY. Will you yourself take it, James Ryan? You were always a neighborly man.
JAMES RYAN (backing). There is many a thing I would do for you,
Bartley Fallon, but I won't do that!
SHAWN EARLY. I tell you there is no man will give you any help or any encouragement for this day's work. If it was something agrarian now—
BARTLEY. If no one at all will take it, maybe it's best to give it up to the police.
TIM CASEY. There'd be a welcome for it with them surely!
(Laughter.)
MRS. TULLY. And it is to the police Kitty Keary herself will be brought.
MRS. TARPEY (rocking to and fro). I wonder now who will take the expense of the wake for poor Jack Smith?
BARTLEY. The wake for Jack Smith!
