plea from a West African who
unexpectedly found himself "dis
employed." "Dear Sir On opening this
epistle you will behold the work
of a dejobhmt nerann and a very
bewildered and much childreniz

good self.

on your own head, and remind
yourself on walking home at the
moon's end to five savage wives
and sixteen voracious children

pence and a solitary six pence;

yourself esquire for my dejob

that myself who pitched sixteen
children into this vale of tears
can have a lazy atom in his mor
tal frame, and a sudden depar
ture of eleven pounds has left
me on the verge of destitution
and despair.
"I hope this vision of horror
will enrich your dreams this night
and the Good Angel will melt and
