The Play

Later in the evening, we were ready for our play. Jo took on all the male roles, since there are no males in our plays. It was the Operatic Tragedy. After the play, we went downstairs and we found two whole dishes of ice cream! And cake and french bonbons and four bouquets of flowers. Mr. Laurence, the Laurence boy's grandfather, had sent them! For us! Apparently, Hannah, out servant, told one of his servants about us helping that family, so he sent word to Marmee, requesting that he give this to us!  So Merry Christmas all, and Mr. Laurence as well! :-)
