The General Died at Dawn Page #5

it is no such intention

in my mind.

But we are expecting

an information

from Mr. O'Hara

this morning.

What was in that wire

you got?

Oh! Smart,

very smart.

Well,

you get six more hours

and then I sell

to the first comer.

That's what was

in that wire.

Get me?

Got you.

You forget the glass.

Oh.

I'll be under

that moose head

and a stuffier piece

of stuffin' I've never seen.

"I'll be glad when you're dead"

"You rascal you"

"I'll be glad

when you're dead"

"you rascal you"

Detestable man.

Who is it?

Don't know.

Thank you.

Pete.

What?

Where are you going?

I'll be back.

Where are you going?

Down to the bar...

for a tonic.

No more bets

on the ponies?

Now, Judy,

have I got money for bets?

I don't know.

Have you?

I surely don't

understand your attitude.

Pick up that shipment

for Yang, first thing.

Of course. Of course.

Of course. Why, of course.

Well, I must say,

what a funny world

where a man's own daughter

don't trust him. I must say.

No one mistrusts you, Pete,

but I just happen

to be worried

about that O'Hara boy.

So please be careful.

Sure.

Oh, you dog.

Oh, you dog, you.

What are you looking at,

banjo eyes?

He drink

for three days now.

Who is he?

Name Mr. Brighton.

Oh! Mr. Brighton?

Yeah.

Waiting for somebody.

He got plenty money.

Say he go

to hard-knock university.

Every morning, he eats

two double lamb chops.

Also has

two sisters

live in Washington, D.C.

His favorite song:

"I'll be glad when you die,

you rascal you"

"I'll be glad"

"When you're dead,

you rascal you"

See?

I found this sign

on the floor, Mademoiselle.

Thank you.

My foot.

I am Wu, Mademoiselle.

And?

I bring to Mademoiselle

the greetings of the house.

A custom here.

Good brandy?

Yes.

Our four-star is better.

Brandied duck is with us

a house specialty.

I never eat brandied duck.

Very friendly on the stomach.

Like our small creature here.

You have him long?

Two years.

Call him.

What?

Mademoiselle,

call the animal to you.

What for?

Call him.

Maybe if you call him

with name.

Maybe if you say to him,

"Sam."

What do you want?

Where is O'Hara?

Who is O'Hara?

Mademoiselle,

you are indelicate.

You do not know him,

nor the creature here?

Your Mr. O'Hara was taken off

a train last night.

General Yang do it?

Yes.

What else?

I don't know what else.

What do you mean?

You don't know more?

No.

The animal was left behind.

You're sure

nothing more? Please.

Why should I lie?

Mademoiselle has

already lied once.

Who in the world are you

to demand the truth?

A great friend

of O'Hara.

And what's that

got to do with me?

Shanghai is filled

with dangerous persons,

Mademoiselle.
