Excerpt: ...Hazel: (At door.) I will lay my information before you will overtake me! Mineog: (Seizing him.) I will lay my information against you for theft and you bringing away my coat! Hazel: I have no intention of bringing it away! Mineog: Is it that you will deny it? Don't I know that spot of grease on the sleeve? Hazel: Did I never carve a goose? Why wouldn't there be a spot of grease on my own sleeve? Mineog: Strip it off of you this minute! Hazel: Give me back my own coat, so! Mineog: What are you talking about! That ...

Excerpt: ...Hazel: (At door.) I will lay my information before you will overtake me! Mineog: (Seizing him.) I will lay my information against you for theft and you bringing away my coat! Hazel: I have no intention of bringing it away! Mineog: Is it that you will deny it? Don't I know that spot of grease on the sleeve? Hazel: Did I never carve a goose? Why wouldn't there be a spot of grease on my own sleeve? Mineog: Strip it off of you this minute! Hazel: Give me back my own coat, so! Mineog: What are you talking about! That's a great wonder now. So it is not my own coat. Hazel: Strip it off before you will quit the room! Mineog: I'll be well pleased casting it off! Hazel: You will not cast it on the dust and the dirt of the floor!

Mineog: What way did you get it on? Hazel: It is that it is made too narrow. Mineog: No, but yourself that has too much bulk. Hazel: (Struggling.) There now is a tear! Mineog: (Taking his arm.) Mind now, you'll have it destroyed. Hazel: Give me a hand, so. Mineog: (Helping him gently.) Have a care-it's a bit tender in the seams--give me here your hand-it is caught in the rip of the lining. John: (Coming in, puts pie on table.) Wait now, sir, till I'll aid you to handle Mr. Hazel's coat. (Whips off coat, takes up other coat, hangs both on pegs.) The apple pie, Sir. (Hazel sits down, gasping and wiping his face. Mineog turns his back.) John: Is there anything after happening, Mr. Hazel? Hazel: There is not-unless some sort of a battle. John: Ah, what signifies? There to be more of battles in the world there would be less of wars. (He pushes Mineog's chair to table.) Hazel: (After a pause.) Apple pie? Mineog: (Sitting down.) Indeed, I am not any way inclined for eating. (Takes plate. John stuffs a cushion into window pane and picks up...
