Mrs. Airey Miss Muriel Pratt
Bill Airey Mr. Charles Bibby
Two Maids.

Note: There is no attempt made in the play to reproduce exactly the Westmoreland dialect, which would be unintelligible to ears coming new to it, but only to catch the rough music of it and the slow inflection of northern voices.
