JAMES

(gives Harry a glass of wine)

They say, you’ve got a whole kingdom in America and you are a descendant of Montezuma.

Harry spits out the grass blade and takes the glass from him

CAPTAIN WRIGHT

(puts a piece of ham into his mouth)

Where did you get such information?

JAMES

The villagers say so.

He chews the ham and takes a sip from his glass of wine

HARRY

Have you already been to the village?

Harry takes a piece of ham from the plate, brought to him by Smith

CAPTAIN WRIGHT

James and I walked there in the afternoon.

He lights up a cigar

SMITH

Mr. Harry is the owner of the local castle, so they talk about him.

He sits down on the grass next to Harry and eats a piece of ham

HARRY

Karl Ivanovich will help me to become its owner.

He takes another piece of ham from Smith’s plate

KARL IVANOVICH

(wipes his hands with a napkin)

I haven’t found missing documents yet in the archive, but I have got interesting letters.

He leans back against the tree trunk and gets a batch of letters out of his bag

HARRY

These are letters from the Hunting House, we will live there until I get the castle.

KARL IVANOVICH

(unties the ribbon, which ties the letters)

The letters have an evident connection with the teacher’s diary.
