Excerpt from Pawns of War: A Play The scene is laid in Belgium, in the home of Doctor Albert Esterlinck, surgeon and burgomaster of Aerschel. The time is toward the end of summer, 1914. Two men are standing in a long, rather low-ceiled room, talking together in cautious undertones. A large window to the left. Quaint windmo seat deep sunk in the thick wall. Door back leads to dining room. Door right leads to wide hall. At long intervals, people with fire arms pass down this hall; those who carry revolvers lay them on a stout table, those with ri es hand them to the man behind the table, who stacks them in the corner of the hall. In this living room are a handsome cabinet, a long Flemish stove, a carved chest, curious brass and pewter dishes, and bits of valuable tapestry.
