heard one OF them say
"My name is McGlue, sir William
McGlue | am brother Of the late Alex
ander McGlue. | picked up your paper
this morning, and perceived in It an out
rageous Insult TO my deceased relative, and
| have come around to demand sir, WHAT
DO YoU MEAN by the following infamous
language?
THE death angel smpte Alexander McGlue.
Ana gave him prutracted Tepose;
He wore checked shin and Number Nine shoe,
Ana he had pink wart on his nose.
No doubt he Is happier dwelling in space
over there on the evergreen shore
Ills friends informed that his funeral takes place
Precisely al quarter-past four
This is simply diabolical! My late
brother had no wart on his nose, sir He
had upon his nose neither pink wart nor
a green wart, nor a cream colored wart,
nor a wart Of any other color. Il is a
sandcr 1t is gratuitous insult to my
family, and distinctly want you to say
chdf you mean by such conduct y
Really, sir" said Brimmer, "it is a
mistake. This is the horrible work Of an
incendary miscreant whom trusted us a
brother. He shall be punished by my own
hand for this outrage. A pink wart |
Awful lsir-awful! The miserable scoun-
drel shall ssifer for this--he shall indeedl'
"How could | know, murmured OFT, out
there by himself, "that the corpse hadn't a
pink wart ? used to know man named
McClue and he had one. and | Thought aH
