Addy's Story

"Addy's Story" is an Addy play.

Plot Summary
Unlike most days where Addy works for Uncle Solomon, she must go to school. However, Momma makes her go to Mrs. Ford's Dress Shop to get a gown. Once there, they buy a dress for $1. At school, Miss Dunn shares that two plus two equals four. Addy then returns home and works for Uncle Solomon picking weeds. Harriet walks up to Addy and asks her if she has seen Esther, as she has been roaming the area alone. After hearing a baby crying, Harriet goes to look for her, but trips over a metal rod and cuts herself badly.

Addy goes off to get Momma so Harriet can be rescued. When Momma arrives, she observes Harriet's bloody leg. They take her to the hospital, where Sam looks after her. He decides to amputate the leg tomorrow. Addy, now in her room with Momma and Esther, is concerned about Harriet, but Momma tells her that she will be "back to normal" once her leg is removed.

On the following morning, Addy and Momma go down to Sam's office. Once there, they discover that Harriet died over the course of the night. Addy goes back to her room where she is sad at first, but is determined not to let Harriet's death get her down.
