A man attempting to mount his horse falls twice, leaves a tavern bed offers, then dies on the road at dawn. His corpse is carried to a room in the same public house where six days earlier he defaced a print and uttered impious words. Nearby, a companion, Mr W, hanged himself on April 25 1796, prompting a grim reflection on divine judgment.
A letter describes Captain D and Dr G as cousins in a Somerset market town who bet £100 on who would live longer. The Doctor dies soon after. the Captain returns, mocks the funeral, swears, and demands repayment. Divine judgment follows the impious conduct and blasphemy.
