A man in a bag wig and with crossed eyes lands on his "broad bottom" between two chairs pulled from under him by two diminutive devils. His face has an expression of utter surprise. The devil on the left, with the name Oliver on the large club of his hair tied in the macaroni fashion, pulls with his cane 'city chair 1772.' The devil on the right, with the name Sawbridge on his club, pulls the chair inscribed 'liberty.'
