VOICE OF MRS. EGERTON.
(_As Egerton opens the bedroom door_)
Donald! Donald!
(_The Doctor follows Egerton into the bedroom_)
CHRIS KNUDSON.
(_Looking toward the door that the Doctor has shut_)
Peace and good will on earth.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
He stood for that.
(_They stand silent about the stove. Anderson picks up two chairs, which he takes over to the two strangers, who are standing by the table_)
CHRIS KNUDSON.
There's things about us here that we don't see.
SAM WILLIAMS.
(_Looking toward the bedroom_)
I'm sorry--for his sake.
CHRIS KNUDSON.
What will we do?
SAM WILLIAMS.
You'll not desert us, comrade, now he's gone.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
'For all time; shall we say it?'
CHRIS KNUDSON.
That last day.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
'And give our lives, if need be?'
SAM WILLIAMS.
He gave his.
(_Takes up the lantern_)
HARVEY ANDERSON.
He hasn't left the Cause, Sam.
SAM WILLIAMS.
True.
CHRIS KNUDSON.
That's true; He hasn't left the Cause.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
Here just last week, Sitting about the table, planning things, 'The Cause will be here, Harvey, when we're gone, A beautiful river flowing through the land.'
CHRIS KNUDSON.
There was the n.o.blest boy this land's brought forth.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
And we must make it wider, Sam.
SAM WILLIAMS.
Yes, yes.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
Till the whole land is free. That's our work now.
SAM WILLIAMS.
Yes, we must keep right on.
HARVEY ANDERSON.
That was his wish, That we should keep right on; and his mother's, too.
Tell the boys that.
SAM WILLIAMS.
