Edna
Are you going to be partners with him?
Fred
If he wants me to, and I guess he will when I show him Benny Davis’s letter. That’s the hard part, getting acquainted. I’d have broke away a long while ago only for my sister. I couldn’t leave her alone.
Edna
Is she in Schenectady?
Edna
She’ll miss you just the same. I know how sisters feel, especially when their brother is like you or Dick.
Fred
Well, anyway, she got married, and I give them a pair of bookends.
Edna
She’ll love them!
