Saunders's News-Letter of the same date dealt with the subject as follows: The first step in what appears to be a very doubtful proceeding was taken yesterday by the law advisers of the crown.
No fishwives or painters shall intrude upon his polished scenes; all shall be as genteel as himself.

Mr. Saunders's work will be in three volumes; nine hundred and ninety pages!!!!!!
We haven't heard anything from you on this little point, Lord Deppingham." "I don't know anything about Mr. Saunders's family," said Deppingham stiffly. Britt looked at him for a moment, puzzled and uncertain. Then he gave a short, hopeless laugh and said, under his breath: "Holy smoke!"
For one moment the animal looked at the man as if it were surprised at his audacity, and then it recommenced its frantic struggles, snorting blood, and foam, and water into Saunders's face as he scrambled out of its way. Immediately after, Awatok fixed another harpoon in its side, and it dived again. The struggle that ensued was tremendous, and the result seemed for a long time to be doubtful.
