Scene 4.—Dining-Room.—Table Spread.
Mrs. Neal and Charlotte.
Mrs. Neal. Thee may put the tea to draw, Charlotte. Thy father will be in soon, and we must have breakfast.
Enter Mr. Neal, L.
I think, Simeon, it is time those people were called. Thee knows that they may be pursued, and we ought not to detain them long here.
Mr. Neal. Yes, Ruth, thou art right. Go, Charlotte, and knock on their chamber door, and tell them that breakfast is ready.
[Exit Charlotte, R.
Mrs. N. Poor creatures! I hope they’ll reach Canada in safety. They seem to be worthy persons.
