A delightful comedy, with characters who are taken bodily from small-town life. A touching story about a friendless child who falls into the care of "The Neighbours” Excerpt from: The Neighbours, A kitchen. At the right an ironing-board, with full clothes-basket on the floor. Fit the back an open door, an open window with blooming plants on its outside sill, and a wide cupboard with a figured calico curtain before it. At the left an exit into a shed. A wooden bottomed rocker with high back and calico cushion, some wooden bottomed straight chairs, a table cov ered with a red cloth and ranged with four or five lamps, and at the corner farthest from the ironing-board, clothes-bars spread with a few freshly-ironed pieces. By the window, left back, sits grandma who does not leave her chair throughout the play until its end. She is very old. She is in bright-coloured calico, with ribbons on her black cap. She is cutting and winding white and black carpet rags, and a basket of the balls is beside her on the floor.
