WES DICEY.
Are you Sam?
HARVEY ANDERSON.
If it's the soldier boys you're knocking at, They don't intend to stay, most of them don't.
But as I think they'll be invited to.
(_Cheers_)
Didn't they leave _their_ Union?
A MILITIAMAN.
The d.a.m.ned dog.
SAM WILLIAMS.
I mean to vote, Wes, for that Living Mill That Mr. Egerton has told us of.
For that's the thing, or something like that thing, We've worked for all these years. And now it's come, A place where we can work and be free men, Having a say in things, as Harvey says, G.o.d help us if we can't get on as friends.
(_Jim King takes Dicey aside, where Masters joins them_)
HARRY EGERTON.
(_Coming to Bentley and the militiamen_)
I want to thank you, Bentley, and you men, I want to thank you for the help you've been.
You've played the n.o.blest part I ever knew.
BUCK BENTLEY.
We followed you.
HARRY EGERTON.
No. We have interests here, The rest of us have interests here; we've homes And families, and the fight was ours. But you, You'd never seen a one of us before.
And you came here honorable men, and now You're traitors through the State, and mutineers.
BUCK BENTLEY.
It's all right.
HARRY EGERTON.
Yes, indeed, it is all right.
FIFTH MILITIAMAN.
They'll be more, too.
SIXTH MILITIAMAN.
He'll never call them out.
HARRY EGERTON.
You've helped to make the history of this land, And there's not one of you will not be known And honored for it.
A MILITIAMAN.
Half as much as you.
HARRY EGERTON.
And now a little toast before you go.
(_Shakes hands with them_)
Bentley, Kelley, Stamper, and you all, Sam, and you, Harvey, Chris, and Mike, and Wes, You'll join us, you and Jim and Rome?
(_The three remain aside talking together_)
HARRY EGERTON.
And you, And you back there, you of the Living Mill-- For all time, shall we say it?
SUBDUED VOICES.
For all time.
HARRY EGERTON.
(_With a swift glance toward Dicey, King and Masters_)
And give our lives, if need be, for this thing?
SUBDUED VOICES.
And give our lives, if need be, for this thing.
HARRY EGERTON.
This is a glorious day.
MILITIAMEN.
