She says: Why you seem to be a good looking hard working young fellow, but I must tell you my business is extensive And I shall expect you will employ your time day and night for the benefit of the Concern, you must also be humble and submissive, should this be realized on Trial I will make you a Sleeping Partner. And here's a trifle for you to buy a pair of gloves. He answers with eager deference: You may depend upon it Madam I shall endeavour to give you every satisfaction. I shall be very attentive and if I can't get through the business as you like, you are at liberty to employ an Assistant. Mrs. Coutts is décolletée and bejewelled, wearing a turban trimmed with a paradise-plume. The gold-bordered tablecloth is weighted with balls inscribed £20,000 and £9,000. Large money-bags are on the floor behind her: £800,000 and . . . 000. Under her chair are a glass and a decanter of White Tape. Behind her is a picture of heaped sovereigns and money-bags.

- Abstract:
- Racist caricature lampooning the inept attempt by African Americans to mimic the leisure culture of white high society depicting an African American tea party hosted by "Mr. Ludovico" and "Miss Rosabella." To the far right of the table, "Miss Rosabella" pours steaming hot tea into a cup which tips over and spills onto a startled cat on the floor. To her right, "Mr. Ludovico" attends to the needs of "Miss Araminta" who protests his taking the trouble. Next to them, a disgruntled guest demands "anoder cup" of tea. An African American servant and the other guests, a mother holding her baby and her small son, observe and comment about the spilled tea on the cat and the flirtatious behavior of "Mr. Ludovico."
