Fun and Folly in a Quixotic Portrait of Humor
A fragmentary sketch extols cultivating fun as a fine art and describes a mischievous tale of Curvier who dismisses the Devil with wit. A wandering tale follows a hungry traveler and a pistol demand, ending with a note that Rev. Spurseon praises dancing as healthy but fears poor reception.
