ACT I

TIME: Four o'clock, an afternoon in June in the year 1830.

PLACE: The little living-room in the house of Dennis O'Malley in a small town in Ireland .

AT CURTAIN: The room is empty. A small fire smoulders in the huge fireplace and the afternoon sun streams in at the low, wide window. After a moment, a small urchin whose face can scarcely be seen for the dirt and the shaggy hair falling over it, nor the lines of whose body can be distinguished because of the largeness and raggedness of his clothes, cautiously pokes his head in from the L. side of the open door at back — and looking about, gradually comes into sight in the doorway and, beckoning to some one to follow, sneaks over the doorsill and into the room, carefully watching the inner doors. After a moment an old woman hobbles slowly into the doorway. She is bent over a heavy crooked stick with the aid of which she manages to move. Her hob-nailed shoes, short red petticoat and the shawl over her weather-beaten head are sadly worn and soiled. She stops in the doorway, peering into the room out of her watery eyes, her toothless old mouth working and one gnarled hand feeling the door casing .
