Stedman Harder- late 30s to 50s, the fairly non-descript neighbor, coddled from youth, not much ambition, has been given everything, thinks of himself as a country gentleman. HARDER, T. Stedman. Heir to Standard Oil money, and neighbor of Phil Hogan and his daughter, Josie Hogan. Harder is in his late thirties, living the life of a country gentleman, and endeavoring to look the part. He is offended by the existence of the raffish Hogans and unsuccessfully tries to buy their farm for ten thousand dollars from the legal owner, James Tyrone, Jr. He comes to the Hogan farm to complain about their breaking down his boundary fences to allow their pigs into his pond. He is no match for the Irish wit and comic malice of the Hogans, who trip him up both literally and figuratively. A short account of this incident also appears in Long Days Journey into Night. In A Moon for the Misbegotten it becomes the central comic piece. -- -- -- On a few days and nights in early September of 1923 Josies father Phil hatches a plan to get Josie to marry James Tyrone, so the Hogans wont lose the farm. In one of ONeills most powerfully poetic scenes, Josie plays her role of seducer, only to have Tyrone open up about his life, failures and his love for her. Very drunk, he falls asleep in Josies arms and she laments, God forgive me, its a fine end to all my scheming, to sit here with the dead hugged to my breast, and the silly mug of the moon grinning down, enjoying the joke!
