Maniac aboard ship forced encounter ends in rescue
A voyage tale recounts a crewman confronted by a strong, deranged fellow passenger armed with a knife. The danger escalates as the cabin door is locked, but the escape plan fails until crew intervene and confine the lunatic. The assailant, later found to be an escaped patient from a Liverpool asylum, is handed to authorities in New York.

No Place for Getting Religion in Church Tale
An usher escorts a visibly moved woman to a front seat during a church service with rich music. He asks if she wore it, she says no but feels she might be getting religion. The usher rebukes the visitor as improper, and Goldsmith’s quip about writing one’s own epitaph is noted in passing.
