- Title etched below image., Measurements from copy in British Museum., Identification of those depicted from British Museum., Description from British Museum: "John Bull, a carter, tips the contents of a rough two-wheeled cart, 'John Bull's Rubbish Cart', into a circular pit. The contents are the Opposition: Fox (three-quarter length), the largest figure, is sliding in; he clutches the long forelock of Burdett, who with Tierney is just behind him, and still in the cart. He looks despairingly at Pitt, who stands (right) in profile to the left, in surplice and bands, and pointing down the pit. Pitt reads from his open book: 'With a sincere hope that none of you will ever rise again, I commit you all to the Pit-hole!' Sheridan is about to fall in head first. Behind, and towering above Burdett and Tierney (who are comparatively self-controlled), is Erskine in wig and gown, holding a 'Brief', his arms raised in terrified supplication. On his left is the profile of Bedford (right) wearing a jockey-cap. The large head of the tiny Lord Derby is in the back left corner of the cart. Two small feet are disappearing into the pit, perhaps belonging to M. A. Taylor. The carter, raising the back of the cart, says: "Good bye to you, my Masters, Parson Billy will soon settle the business". His horse, unharnessed, stands with its head behind the cart.", This electronic record is derived from historic data and may not reflect our current information.
