Mrs. B. I let you that bed for one night for four dollars, and now it is time that you was about your business.
Schmidt. Vot’s that you are saying?
Mrs. B.
Mary.

You get out of here, mighty quick.
Schmidt. Four dollars for a bed! Then I takes it along with me. (he lays hold of and removes the bed, but Mary and Mrs. B. force it from him, and whilst they are depositing it below, he tugs at the bedstead, removing it, says) I’ll take this along. (Mary and Schmidt combat for the possession of it, to and fro from end to end of the stage. Mary at last succeeds in removing it below. Schmidt, however, remains, singing)
Four dollars for a sleep,
In dis haunted hotel,
Clubbed and waken’d up,
All the long, long night through.
