STAGE MANAGER:
This time, (
) years have gone by, summer, 1913.
(
) changes in Grover's Corners. Horses are getting (
). Farmers coming into town now in Fords. People start to (
) their house doors now at night. Ain't been no (
) around, but everybody's (
) about 'em. But for the most part things don't (
) much around here. This is an important part of Grover's Corners. It's up on a (
)—a windy hill—lots of (
), lots of sky, lots of sun and moon and (
), too. On a fine day, you can (
) up here, and just see (
) after range of hills— awful blue they are—up there by Lake Sunapee and Lake Winnipesaukee...climb up even higher, you see all the
(
) to the White Mountains and Mt. Washington—where Conway and North Conway is. And, of course, we got our own (
) mountain, Mt. Monadnock,—and all the little (
) that lie around it: Jaffrey, 'n North Jaffrey, 'n Peterborough, 'n Dublin; and (
) down there is Grover's Corners. Beautiful spot up here. Mountain laurel and lilacks. I always wonder why people wanted to be buried in places like Brooklyn and Woodlawn when they could come up here spend the same time in New Hampshire.
