J03 The Americans EGERTON.
You're not the sort of man To stand dictation. You've a work to do, Men of your type. I think I heard you say That you were with the rangers at San Juan?
HARVEY ANDERSON.
I did some time down there.
EGERTON.
Well spent, my boy. I had a brother in the Civil War.
(Watches Anderson catching his hat) That was a good one. I know how you feel; So full of life you don't care what comes on. 'Out of the way!' It's rare enough these days. You'd be surprised what cowards most me...n are, Big six foot fellows who want to go to work; Offer it to them and they shake their heads Because they see some pickets round the corner.
HARVEY ANDERSON. 'Fraid of your soldiers?
EGERTON.
Pickets; Union men.
They'd fly to arms quick enough if Charlie Hare Charlie's our Mayor said 'No more free speech. ' But Williams he can say, 'No more free work. ' They'd rather talk, you see, than be free men. 104 The Americans HARVEY ANDERSON. That's a good phrase, 'Free Work. ' EGERTON.
A good 'phrase, ' yes.
