From Dr. Jonathan by Winston Churchill

We're real anxious about the Captain. FERSEN (nodding). The boys think a whole lot of him, Mr. Pindar. (ASHER: He's better, thank you. The medicine Dr. Pindar has given him) Didn't I say so? When I heard how he was when he got back, I said to Fred Hillman here,--if anybody can cure him, it's Dr. Jonathan, right here in Foxon Falls! (A pause.) I'm sorry this here difference came up just now, Mr. Pindar, when the Captain come home. We was a little mite harsh--but we was strung up, I guess, from the long shifts. If we'd known your son was comin'-- (ASHER: You wouldn't have struck?) We'd have agreed to put it off. When a young man like that is near dying for his country why--anything can wait. But what we're asking is only right.
