      IBSEN’S GHOST

      (GEORGE sits writing at desk R. TIA is at fireplace L.I. burning letters. She is very mournful, kisses letters, etc.)

      GEORGE: Do you know, dear, I think I shall be able to make something of poor Eylbert Lovborg’s notes after all. There is no title, cast list or note in TH. Then I will publish the book as my own, and it may bring me fame. Just think of that now, Hedda!

      TIA: I wish you would remember that my name is Tia.

      GEORGE: I mean Tia, I married you so soon after Hedda shot herself, that I mix you up still. Tia, how many T’s in ‘tentative’.

      TIA (indifferently): Four.

      GEORGE: And how many z’s in ‘influenza’?

      TIA: What does that matter, you take it all the same.

      GEORGE: Does ‘civil’ begin with ‘s’?

      TIA: Don’t know, write polite.

      GEORGE: I will Hedda, I mean Tia, and is there a K in Christianity.

      TIA: There is nothing in Christianity.

      GEORGE: Tia, I think I had better leave the spelling to my secretary, where is he now?

      TIA: He is upstairs packing his bag.

      GEORGE: Think of that now, Hedda. (rises) He is leaving me, and he is the sixth secretary I have engaged during the last month — I wonder why they all desert me thus?

      (comes to her)

      TIA: Dear simple George, can he not guess.

      GEORGE: And, oh! I say Tia what are you doing there?

      TIA (wringing her hands): Burning the letters you wrote me before our marriage, George.

      GEORGE: There now! and Tia what is inside that parcel you have been making up all the morning?

      TIA:
