MR . BUNT

LU
Yes, Danny. You don't understand - you couldn't, you're only a man. If I don't leave him now I got a chance , I'll never have the strength to do it again ; and you'll back me up,
Danny , when he comes ? It's for his sake, Danny, and oh ! he's a man now, I know it ! Danny is silent. Lu continues. Call him, Danny. Tell him we found the queer kid .
Danny starts to go . Lu puts out her hand. Wait, Danny, just a minute - till I get hold of myself again. Just a minute now - I'll be all right.
There is a crackling of underbrush .
Oh, Danny, listen - it's him a-coming. Mind you
do as I
say.
