...could we get down to business?

- Yes.

"Know all men by these present,

that I, Angus lan McLaurel...

...being of sound mind and..."

- Pardon me, Mr. Miggs.

- Is it necessary to read that?

- Well, no.

Well, let's skip it and get down

to what we're going to get.

"First, I do bequeath to my grandson,

Stanley McLaurel...

...whom I've never seen,

two of my most cherished possessions...

...with the hope that he'll preserve them

and hand them down...

...from generation to generation."

You're a very lucky man,

Mr. McLaurel...

...and you'll be the envy

of many a true Scot.

Look at that.

Blown at Waterloo,

sounding the charge at Balaklava...

...whistling defiance at Mafeking...

...and the praise of victory at Mons.

And last but not least, this snuff box.

Presented for valor

by Mary Queen of Scots...

...to your great-great-great-great-

great-great-grandfather.

And a grand man he was.

- Is this all we get?

- That's all, sir.

And I wish you a very pleasant voyage

back to America.

Thomas, show these gentlemen

to the door...

...and tell Lady Ormsby I'd like to speak

to her at her convenience.

Yes, sir. This way, gentlemen.

Good day, gentlemen.

There we are.

- Well, here I am. At your service.

- Oh, thank you, Your Ladyship.

You know, I'm anxious

to have this affair settled.

Here's the probate of the will and the

term of the colonel's trusteeship...

...duly signed, sealed and now delivered.

Thank you, Mr. Miggs.

I'll see that my brother gets them safely.

I shall mention your efficient handling of

the whole affair. You can depend on that.

I'm worried about the lassie.

This romance with my clerk

is more serious than I suspected.

She's got a mind of her own.

And if she decides not to go...

...it will be ruinous for her.

- Of course it would be.

Oh, this love affair, or romance

as you call it, doesn't mean anything.

- Love affairs at that age never do.

- You may be right...

...but I don't like the job

of forcing her to go away.

You won't have to.

The boy will do that.

He seems a reasonable,

manly sort of chap.

I know. You send him to me

and I'll see what can be done.

Oh, I'll do that at once, Your Ladyship.

And thank you again.

Oh, it takes a woman to handle

the affairs of the heart.

I'll say goodbye to you for the present

and thank you for your gracious help.

- Goodbye, Mr. Miggs.

- I'll send the boy to you at once.

Well, here's another nice mess

you've gotten me into.

All the way from America

on a cattle boat...

...for this...

...Mr. McLaurel.

That isn't the way to use that.

Dry these.

Mr. McLaurel.

Mind your own business.

Blown at Waterloo.
