Publisher's Synopsis
Ha! Ha! Ha! I am astonished. I didn't expect to find more than ten persons in the house to-night, and I see there are eleven. I want to thank that gentleman in the first row-the man with the vigorous growth of hair. It's such a relief to see a man with some hair, in the front row. Say, I don't think I ever told you of the time I went with a Shakespearian company to tour the New England States. Never knew I was an actor? Why, of course. Wouldn't have thought it? Neither would I, if I didn't know to what extremes a man of my attainments may be driven, when his bread-basket is empty.
