"The freeholder, a ragged Irish peasant, stands full-face, between a bloated priest (left) and a fashionably dressed young man; both tug at his coat-collar. The obese priest, who wears robes, with a large cross from neck to knee, holds up a print of the Devil smoking a pipe, in the bowl of which sits a tortured man; he says: Vote for your Priest or see this picture of your Soul in the next world. The other points behind him to an eviction scene, saying, Vote for your Landlord or see the real consequence in this World. In the background is a cluster of mud huts placarded Wanted Protestant Tenants for these Cabins. Men chase away a ragged family in one direction, and a pig in the other. Freeholder: Sure I'm bother'd [cf. BM Satires No. 8141] hadent I better be after voten for both your honors id would make the thing asier aney how.

"A satire on Cambridge. The interior of a large room showing two sash windows, through one of which (left) is seen part of the south side of the Senate House, through the other, the tower of St. Mary's Church, both drawn with topographical accuracy. Between the two windows is a niche in which is a statue of Athene holding her shield; in her outstretched left hand is held out a laurel wreath towards some men beneath her who have entered from a door on the right. Her owl sits beside her on the stump of a tree. Beneath the title is etched, "dedicated to the illustrious Inheritress of her fame in Professors of Arts & Sciences, the University of Cambridge O Matre pulchra Filia pulchrior!" Immediately below Athene, and concealing the lower part of her draperies a man stands on a high rostrum covered with a cloth. He wears a furred academic gown and bands, and holds out a rolled document in his right hand. Immediately below the rostrum a man, not in academic dress, is seated at a table writing. He is in profile to the right looking towards four men who have entered from the right through an open door, apparently 'professors of Arts and Sciences', whose names he is recording. The foremost of these is a dancing-master who stands holding a bow in his right hand, a kit or small fiddle in his left. Next is a rough-looking elderly man wearing a round hat and long coat. The other two are middle-aged, one holding his hat and a cane and accompanied by a dog. On the left, and behind the chair of the man writing, are two other 'professors'; a fencing-master, wearing a fencing-jacket, stands in back view, turning his head in profile to the right, his left arm raised, holding his foil horizontally. Behind him stands a thin man wearing a hat, one hand in his waistcoat pocket, the other thrust in his waistcoat."--British Museum catalogue

"Two groups of persons who are candidates for the place of hangman. Inscribed labels issue from the persons of four of them. Two men sit side by side on a settee, wearing curiously shaped crowns or coronets, one (left) shaped like a wall. The former holds a paper inscribed "To J------e G------m" showing that he is Justice Gillam, who ordered the soldiers to fire on the Wilkite mob outside the King's Bench Prison on 10 May 1768 (see British Museum Satires No. 4201). He says: "Everyone knows my abilities as a Man-killer". His companion says: "Let the Place be held by Commission and let the two Kennedies & my self, be Lords Commissioners of the Rope". Behind, and to the left of the settee three persons stand together: A rough-looking man, flourishing a stick says: "I wont accept of ye Office without a Peerage to Support its Dignity". Next him is a Judge in wig and robes. On the right., their backs to a window, stand three men; Sir Fletcher Norton in his Speaker's robes, and the horns which indicate that he is 'Sir Bullface Double Fee', see British Museum Satires No. 4238, 4462, and index, says: "B------n S------h has spoil'd ye Trade, if Murderers were to be hang'd ye Place might be worth acceptce". He stands between the two Kennedy brothers and is alluding to the reprieve (for transportation) of one of them, the other having been acquitted. "B------n S------h" may be intended for Sir Sidney Stafford Smythe, a baron of the Exchequer. This reprieve was for the murder of a watchman in a drunken brawl, and was believed to be due to the influence of the young men's sister, Polly or Kitty Kennedy, see 1935,0522.2.2 and British Museum Satires No., 4463. It was made a political question by Parson Horne and others, see Walpole, 'Memoirs of the Reign of George IV', 1845, iv. 110-11; Stephens, 'Memoirs of Horne Tooke', i. 185. 1770."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The Lord Mayor sits (right) in profile to the left in a chair of state facing a city officer in a long gown holding a wand who leads in a file of five amused 'cits', three men and two women. The officer says: "Here are a number of People brought before your Honor, by your Honor's Order, for not keeping the pavement clean before their Houses in Frosty Weather - according to the Act of Parliament for that purpose; but the worst of all is - here is a Worthy Alderman, lays information, that the pavement before your Honor's Door is as much neglected as any of the rest - and moreover says that he himself had a fall there in the late Frost, which shook him so much, that he has been unable to digest Turtle or Venison ever since - A material injury to one of the Body Corporate." The alderman, who heads the file, clasps an enormous paunch. The Mayor answers, proffering a coin: "Well, Well, if that is the case, take my five Shillings, and say no more about the Business." The Mayor wears spectacles and a chain of office; he has not the plebeian appearance of the alderman and his companions. (Charles Price was Lord Mayor 1802-3.)"--British Museum online catalogue

"A fat doctor is trundled down a hill in a wheelbarrow by a lean and amused countryman. His fat wife walks beside the barrow, holding his wig, hat, and stick, and angrily threatens him with her fist, while a dog runs in front. They have just left a thatched and gabled inn (left), with a sign, 'The Horns', and a placard over the door: 'Real Yorkshire Stingo Wines Cordials'. Jovial village notables sit outside the door, drinking and smoking; two, much amused, stand to watch the departure. A cock (left) with three hens squawks at the barrow."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
