Mr. Punch, on Peeler Piper.
["I wish," said Mr. LANE, the North London magistrate,
"to express my sense of the very great courage and resolution
exhibited by Constable PIPER in this case, under circumstances of
considerable pressure, danger, and exhaustion."--_Times' Police
Report, Sept. 12._]
Peeler PIPER prov'd his plucky pecker.
As Peeler PIPER prov'd his plucky pecker,
Where's there pluckier pecker
Than Peeler PIPER'S proved?
