Trifles(二)
(2006-06-09 15:14:33)County
attorney:(Rubbing his hands.)This feels good.Come up
to the fire,ladies.
Mrs.Peter:(After
taking a step forward.)I'm not-cold.
Sheriff:(Unbuttoning
his overcoat and stepping away from the stove as if to mark the
beginning of official business.)Now, Mr.Hale,before we move things
about,you explain to Mr.Henderson just what you saw when you came
here yesterday morning.
County attorney:By
the way,has anyting been moved?Are things just as you left them
yesterday?
Sheriff:(Looking
about.)It's just the same.When it dropped below zero last night I
thought I'd better send Frank out this morning to make a fire for
us-no use getting pneumonia with a big case on,but I told him not
to touch anything except the stove-and you kown Frank.
County
attorney:Somebody should have been left here
yesterday.
Sheriff:Oh-yesterday.When I had to
send Frank to Morris Center for that man who went crazy-I want you
to know I had my hands full yesterday,I knew you could get back
from Omaha by today and as long as I went over everything here
myself-
County
Attorney:Well,Mr.Hale,tell just what happened when
you came here yesterday morning.
Mr.Hale:Harry and I
started to town with a load of potatoes.We came along the road from
my place and as I got here I said,"I'm going to see if I can't get
John Wright to go in with me on a party telephone."I spoke to
Wright about it once before and he put me off,saying folks talked
too much anyway,and all he asked was peace and quiet-I guess you
know about how much he talked about it before his wife,though I
said to Harry that I didn't know as what his wife wanted made much
difference to JOhn-
County attorney:Let's
talk about that latter,Mr.Hale.I do want to talk about that,but
tell now just what happened when you got to the hpuse.
