An island off the West of Ireland. Cottage kitchen, with nets, oil-skins, spinning-wheel, some new boards standing by the wall, etc. CATHLEEN, a girl of about twenty, finishes kneading cake, and puts it down in the pot-oven by the fire; then wipes her hands, and begins to spin at the wheel. NORA, a young girl, puts her head in at the door. NORA (in a low voice). Where is she? CATHLEEN. She’s lying down, God help her, and may be sleeping, if she’s able. (NORA comes in softly, and takes a bundl...e from under her shawl.) CATHLEEN (spinning the wheel rapidly). What is it you have? NORA. The young priest is after bringing them. It’s a shirt and a plain stocking were got off a drowned man in Donegal. (CATHLEEN stops her wheel with a sudden movement, and leans out to listen.) NORA. We’re to find out if it’s Michael’s they are, some time herself will be down looking by the sea. CATHLEEN. How would they be Michael‘s, Nora. How would he go the length of that way to the far north?
