Absurd Costumes and Wager in York 1806 London Tatler
A London Tatler recounts a strange 1806 wager in York Castle Yard between Thomas Hodgson and Samuel Whitehead over who could wear the most singular costume. Hodgson appeared covered in banknotes with a back banner joining Bulk. Whitehead’s half painted face and半 costume drew mockery. Umpires awarded Hodgson about £20, and the crowd filled the courtroom where a divorce case and other anecdotes unfold, including a blunt courtroom quip about carmine pepper. The piece closes with a Roseville memory puzzle about a party guest’s dance card.
