Are any of those named here?
WADSWORTH
Yes, sir!
BLIGH
Your name, sir?
WADSWORTH
Captain Wadsworth.
BLIGH
Captain Wadsworth, I order you to deliver up the charter to me.
WADSWORTH
Oh, yes, and have you an order for it there?
BLIGH
Indeed I have. Governor Treat has just read it.
WADSWORTH
May I be allowed to see it?
BLIGH
Of course. Governor Treat, will you let this gentleman read the order and be satisfied.
WADSWORTH [_rattle of paper_]
Hm, yes.--"Governor Treat--hereby ordered"--but, Colonel, this is an order upon Governor Treat!
BLIGH
Of course it is! Now are you satisfied?
WADSWORTH
I am deeply sorry, sir, I do not see how the committee can comply with this order.
BLIGH
Why not, pray--is it not properly signed and sealed?
WADSWORTH
Oh yes. Signed properly, but it is drawn against the Governor--and not against the Charter Committee.
BLIGH
Why--what--oh, this is too much! Governor Andros warned me that you would be stubborn and stiff-necked! But I'll have that charter!
Here--I'll change that order--give it here!
WADSWORTH
Here you are, sir. [_rattle of paper_]
BLIGH
Hm--yes--a quill. So--now--"The Charter Committee--is hereby ordered"--there you are. Now I hope you are satisfied.
WADSWORTH
Are you satisfied with this, Governor?
TREAT
Hm--does this not seem to be a forgery, Captain Wadsworth?
WADSWORTH
It not only seems to be, sir, but it is. I saw him make an illegal change in the order. All of us saw it.
ALL
Yes, yes! We saw him.
It is a forgery! Don't obey it!
TREAT
I should say that the change invalidated the entire order!
BLIGH
What? You are trying to put me in the wrong?
WADSWORTH
Not at all, sir! You have put yourself in the wrong.
BLIGH
