Excerpt from Whose Widow a Comedy in One Act Scene. - Interior of an up-to-date living room furnished with chairs, settees, tables, etc., as may be available. Doors right (R.) and center (C.). Discovered: Katherine arranging flowers on a small table. Enter hesitatingly, Marcella, D.C. Katherine. Marcella. Gracious, how you did frighten me. But what under the sun are you doing in black? (Runs to Marcella - embraces her) But, dear, I am so glad you came. It seems so long since I saw your dear face. Marcella. I am glad, too, for I feel as if I am going to have the time of my life, I do, I do, I do, I do. Kath. But, dear, what possessed you to dress in such mournful colors. You had better change before mother sees you, she is so particular. She will never let you dress in black, you, a coming debutante. Why, I've been out two years already and she won't even let me wear it. Come dear, change it for one of your more cheerful garments. Marcella (sighs). Ah me - I fear, Katherine, you haven't grasped the situation. Gaze - before you stands a young widow. Kath. (falls in chair). Marcella, you haven't - Marcella. No, I haven't married, but I am a young widow by choice. (Sits on stool at Kath.'s feet) You see, when father informed me that I was to come here and have aunt present me to society as a young, unsophisticated bud, I was really depressed at the idea. You see, in Colorado I can do what I want. The people all know me and are never surprised at my pranks. Rut to have to meet a host of men and have to talk twaddle to them, why, Katherine, it is simply appalling.
