MRS. GRANAHAN.
Two poun' ten is due.
[Thinking.]
Aye. But I suppose you'll be now in what I would call a good way o'
doin'.
TAYLOR.
There was a five per cent. dividend this half year. The creamery's goin' on well.
[Searching in pocket and getting out account.]
Two pounds, nine and six, ma'am, beggin' your pardon.
MRS. GRANAHAN.
Ach sure sixpence is naither here nor there to a creamery.
[Pauses.]
If that's the way you are, you could be married in a year's time and--
TAYLOR.
[Evidently desirous to lead conversation off this topic.]
Here's the money, ma'am.
[He lays it down on the table and counts it out.]
You'll do as well as Mr. Granahan, I suppose. You take all to do with the money part I think.
MRS. GRANAHAN.
Yes I do. You were at the lecture last Monday?
TAYLOR.
[Alarmed.]
What the divil--
[Suddenly to Mrs. Granahan and genially.]
Yes. Could you oblige me with a receipt ma'am?
MRS. GRANAHAN.
Surely. Here Ellen, get me the pen and ink.
[Ellen goes into room.]
I suppose now there were some nice young weemin there--eh Mr. Taylor?
TAYLOR.
[Uneasily.]
Yes. And don't forget the stamp ma'am.
MRS. GRANAHAN.
Ach sure a penny stamp's what you always carry wi' ye.
[Confidentially.]
I think shame on ye Mr. Taylor, triflin' wi' the poor girls. There's no excuse for a man o' your age.
TAYLOR.
[Fidgeting.]
Well, well, I--Here's a stamp ma'am.
[Impatiently.]
I'm young enough yet. I don't want to marry yet awhile.
MRS. GRANAHAN.
Well now I think ye'd be better o' some one to look after ye. There's William John Granahan. _He's_ niver done bein' thankful since he married. He says he doesn't know what he mightn't ha' been, if he hadn't married _me_.
TAYLOR.
