Colonel Sellers
Act IV

(Washington Room in Dilworthy's house, richly furnished.)

EMILY
[(Enters, elegantly dressed followed by
LAFAYETTE in full evening dress.)]

Did you ever see anything like the way Laura's been sweeping things here in Washington?

(Sits.)

LAFAYETTE

Never [seen] anything like it! She's got half the town at her feet!

EMILY

My! And don't she shift her blandishments around! She just marches on any old iceberg of a Congressman and melts him right down with a smile or two.

LAFAYETTE

I don't believe there's another woman in the world that can do it [and do it as graceful.] She'll lobby that land bill of ours straight through both houses of Congress easy !

EMILY

And then we'll be rich! And won't I have a new dress three times a week!

LAFAYETTE

O, say six times a week!

EMILY

Well I will , and I'll marry and Admiral or a General, too .

LAFAYETTE

Well, how some people do change their minds about things. You for instance.
