Anecdote of Mohammed and the beggar officer in Cairo
An old travel episode recalls a Pacha in Cairo who was shot at by an unemployed military officer. The man, beggared and despairing, explains his act was to end his burdens, and the Pacha promises support and work to deter crime. The broader piece then shifts to a Scottish study of prosperity in England and Scotland, praising growth in cotton, woollen, and iron, and warning about House of Lords obstinacy.
