- Abstract:
- "A thin man wearing a coat with military facings, draws after him (right to left.) a small four-wheeled carriage, similar to a bath-chair or perambulator, inscribed Cox Heath. In it sits a child with a doll. A dog stands at her feet barking at the man who draws the carriage, who has a bundle strapped to his back, apparently containing hay. At the back of the carriage in the place of a footman stands a ragged dwarfish man. On the farther side of the carriage is a recruiting sergeant playing a fife. In the foreground (right) a fat woman, the wife of the man drawing the carriage, walks along carrying a basket containing bottles and a large umbrella in her right hand; a musket is tucked under her left arm. She and the three men all wear oak-leaves in their hats. In the distance the tents of the camp are indicated. An inscription beneath the title has been cut off. One of a number of satires on the militia and the camp of Coxheath, see BMSat 5523, &c."--British Museum online catalogue
