"We ain't got no money right now, but will you take a side of mutton?"
People here say there's no "mutton" these days in the US, so I wonder if
the above is period-appropriate language for ca. 1870.

- There's someone here wanting to audition. - OK, Who is he?
- Well, it's not exactly a he. - OK, Who is she?
- Well, it's not exactly a she. ... it's sort of a they.
- You mean there's more than one? - Not really.
- Good grief, it's a triple-header.
