A Fatal Pun.

According to John Stow, chronicler
and antiquary, about 1860, who wrote
and published Summarize Of English
Chronicles" Sir William Collingwood
was executed in 1884 for writing the
following political squib, in manner
which, in his day, was considered
most excellent wit:
The rat, the cat, and Lovel the dog
Rule all England under the Hog.
This was during the reign of Rich
ard ILL.,, at a time when the chief
agents of his evil schemes were Gates
by, Ratcliff and Lovel. Lovel was
then a common name for dog, and
as a white boar was displayed on the
kings escutcheon, the reference to
"hog" was obvious, and so offensive
that it brought about the writer's
death.
