- Abstract:
- An innkeeper uses a bellows to clear heavy dense tobacco smoke from the tavern interior in response to a servant trying to identify his master in the crowd. The innkeeper proclaims "You say you want a little gentlemen in a brown wig. I have really so much smoking business in my parlour that 'till I make use of the bellows I can never distinguish a customer, I believe that is the gentleman you mean." The servant excitedly responds in a Cockney dialect "Yes, Yes, sure enough that be Master, but before he vanishes again, tell him that Missis has sent the street door key."
