Enter Charlotte, R.
Charlotte. I’ve called them, mother, and they’ll soon be down. I’ll put the breakfast on the table.
Enter Neighbor Jones, L.
Mr. N. Good morning, James. Thee has heard, I presume, that we have two very interesting persons in the house?
Jones. Yes, I heard that you had two fugitives by the Underground road, last night; and I’ve come over to fight for them, if any persons come to take them back.
Enter Thomas, R.
Mr. N. Go, Thomas, and harness up the horses and put them to the covered wagon, and be ready to take these people on, as soon as they get their breakfast. Go, Thomas, and hurry thyself.
[Exit Thomas, R.
And so thee wants to fight, this morning, James?
