Dialogue

[The British are attacking Washington]

Guest: This gives you an idea of the state this country's in, Mr. Crawford. You haven't had a taste of the war in New Orleans yet.

Crawford: Well, no. They're hardly Americans down there. Mostly French and Spanish — Creoles, they call themselves.

[The British dine in the White House]

Cockburn: [carving the beef] You like it underdone, Ross?

Ross: Yes, please.

Cockburn: It's the last meal will be served here.

Ross: A pity about this, Admiral.

Cockburn: Retaliation, Ross. The Yankees burned York. Would you like a bit of the crisp?
