In a scribbled text, a saloon-keeper faces legal trouble as requests mix with scattered verses. A recorder questions provocative acts while the crowd breaks into banter about tobacco, cigars, and a bluffing accused man. The piece blends satire with a chaotic courtroom aside.
The text describes coal formation from vegetable matter as seen in a Pennsylvania valley along a railroad line.
