Yes--yes--
w.i.l.l.yS
In your hands!
ANDROS
Sir! If you don't tell me where that charter is--
w.i.l.l.yS
What then, sir?
ANDROS
Do you see this oak tree?
w.i.l.l.yS
I'm not blind, sir.
ANDROS
I'll have you strung up--strung up in it, sir; I'll have you strung up in it!
w.i.l.l.yS
I should hate to have such a fine tree perverted to such a purpose, sir!
ANDROS
Ah! You would! Colonel Bligh! Colonel!
BLIGH [_distance_]
Yes, Governor!
ANDROS
Send me half a dozen soldiers and a stout rope!
BLIGH
Yes, sir!
ANDROS
Ah! Now perhaps we'll get something from you. Will you tell me or will you be hanged by your thumbs from that stout limb up there until you are ready to tell me where the charter is?
TREAT
Governor Andros, I fear you have forgotten yourself in your rage.
Master w.i.l.l.ys is ent.i.tled to a trial before any such punishment can be meted out to him.
ANDROS
Silence, or I'll have you strung up with him! Gad, sir, I'll fill this oak tree with stiff-necked rebellious Connecticut men, but I'll have that charter!
BLIGH
Here are your men, sir!
ANDROS
Good! One of you climb that oak tree. Here, you, Sergeant.
VOICE
Yes, sir!
ANDROS
Give him a hand there. [_sound of starting to climb the tree_] Have the men found anything in the house, Colonel?
BLIGH
Not a thing, sir!
WADSWORTH
Look here, sir.
ANDROS
Ah, Captain Wadsworth. Have you something to say?
WADSWORTH
I have, sir.
ANDROS
Speak out.
WADSWORTH
Tell those men to stay out of that tree and I'll tell you.
