"ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER."
A poor man went to hang himself, But treasure chanced to find; He pocketed the miser's pelf And left the rope behind. His money gone, the miser hung Himself in sheer despair: Thus each the other's wants supplied, And that was surely fair. * * * * * We understand that Mr. Webster has solicited Sir Peter Laurie to make an early début at the Haymarket Theatre in the _Heir_ (hair) _at Law_. Madame Vestris has also endeavoured to prevail upon the civic mercy. Andrew to appear in the afterpiece of the _Rape of the Lock_. * * * * * THE HEIR OF APPLEBITE. CHAPTER X. WHEREIN THE READER WILL FIND GREAT CAUSE FOR REJOICING. |
