"He who had read his 'Pickwick'--and who has not?--will never
forget the trial scene where poor, innocent Mr. Pickwick is as
wax in the hands of the cross-examiner."
_Provincial Paper_.
We regret to say that, in our edition, _Mr. Serjeant Snubbin_ omitted
to put his client in the witness-box, and consequently _Mr. Serjeant
Buzfuz_ never had a chance of showing what he could do with him.
