A whimsical column mocks noble titles and virtue while lampooning Lord Abinger and Nicholas Suisse as “excellent men.” It laments corruption and warns that privilege cannot hide crime, listing social names and the bar’s critique amid playful verse and a matrimonial advertisement. It also recounts a Plaguey Cool anecdote about a fireworks maker’s wife, a candle, and a gunpowder barrel, from the Bath General Hospital era.
