Hankin, St. John
English drama -- 20th century
[_Johnny runs in by the door on the left. He is
obviously in the highest spirits at the thought
of going home._
JOHNNY
The trap is round, Mummie, and the luggage is
in.
JANET
That’s right. Good-bye, father. _(He does not
move)_ Say good-bye to your grandfather, Johnny.
You won’t see him again.
[_De Mullin kisses Johnny._
MRS. DE MULLIN
Janet!
JANET
No, mother. It’s best not. _(Kisses her)_ It
would only be painful for father. Good-bye, Aunt
Harriet. Good-bye, Hester.
[_Looks at Hester doubtfully. Hester rises, goes
to her slowly and kisses her._
HESTER
Good-bye. .
[_Exeunt Johnny and Janet by the door the
right._
DE MULLIN
_(his grey head bowed on his chest
as Mrs De Mullin timidly lays her hand on his
shoulder)_
The last of the De Mullins! The last of the De
Mullins!
_(The curtain falls)_
