Address to a Cat and Miscellaneous Jabs

A fragmented column mixes verse about a cat and Moonlit shed with jests and quips. It mocks prize fighting, notes David Davis at large, and wryly questions hats, nightdresses, and a Rhode Island man Weston. The tone is satirical and ragged, typical of a 19th century dispatch.
