The scene is in the summer cottage of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Roberts, in a Boston suburb, and the space where they encounter from opposite doors at the moment the action opens is a square hallway, with the stairs climbing out of one corner of it, and a fireplace in the other, after a fashion no longer very novel in the architecture of summer cottages. It is rather a close morning in August, but all the windows are shut, and a fire is briskly burning on the hearth .

after a moment of apparent fascination with the notion :

Note: Contains 56 words in 3 sentences using 265 chars.

CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 25 words in 2 sentences using 131 chars.

Mrs. Campbell runs to the mirror in the corner of the hallway, and hastily reorders her dress and hair, and turns again to her husband .

MRS. CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 62 words in 3 sentences using 298 chars.

DR. WILLIAMS,
standing with his hat in one hand, and his case of medicines in the other :

Note: Contains 7 words in 1 sentence using 31 chars.

MRS. CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 31 words in 4 sentences using 148 chars.

She throws open the library door, and Dr. Williams disappears within, looking mystified. As she closes the door on him, and turns away, Campbell shows himself at the dining-room door, and addresses her in a stage-whisper .
CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 26 words in 3 sentences using 130 chars.

whispering :

MRS. CAMPBELL,
opening the door, to peep in :

Note: Contains 1 word in 1 sentence using 3 chars.

DR. LAWTON:

Note: Contains 26 words in 3 sentences using 121 chars.

He goes into the library, and closes the door after him, and at the same instant Campbell flings open the dining-room door, and flies out upon his wife .
CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 33 words in 4 sentences using 165 chars.

Campbell is obliged to speak in an impassioned whisper, so that he shall not be heard in the library .

with a shrug :

Note: Contains 29 words in 2 sentences using 158 chars.

THE VOICE FROM OVERHEAD,
making itself heard through the closed door :

Note: Contains 27 words in 5 sentences using 103 chars.

dramatically :

CAMPBELL:

Note: Contains 50 words in 6 sentences using 248 chars.

They both stamp their feet, and a sound of swishing dresses and suppressed voices is heard on the little gallery that looks down into the hallway from above. The dresses and the voices are those of Mrs. Roberts and Mrs. Campbell; Mrs. Campbell restrains Mrs. Roberts by main force from rushing down and interfering with the quarrel of the men .

DR. LAWTON,
dramatically :

dramatically :

Note: Contains 5 words in 4 sentences using 27 chars.

ROBERTS,
with shuddering dismay :

Note: Contains 20 words in 5 sentences using 103 chars.

CAMPBELL,
with great calm :

Note: Contains 9 words in 3 sentences using 52 chars.
