The father entered as the three children were bathed, and all three were placed in one bed to fool him into thinking the wife had given birth to triplets.

A Liverpool paper notes identification remains unsolved, a riddle even Solomon might be puzzled by.

A varied old column recounts a Crawford childhood incident with a missionary box mishap and a clergyman’s charity prank. It blends a joke about a trust magnate fleeing in a car, a joke at an entertainment end, a shoe ad moment, and a note on thoughts and Russia versus England church counts.
