On Smiggers' right is a "doddering" old fellow of between seventy and eighty clearly a "nullity" on his left, another member nearly as old, but with a glimmer of intelligence.

"No!" he cried; on which the cheers of his followers broke out. "Who was it that cried No?" Then he proceeded to imagine it came from some "vain and disappointed man he wouldn't say haberdasher." To the Pickwick Club there was a Vice-President, named Smiggers Joseph Smiggers, Esq., P.V.P.M.P.C., that is, Perpetual Vice-President and Member of the Pickwick Club.
Smiggers was, of course, supposed to be "Pickwick's creature," or he would not have been there. He was a tall, corpulent man, with a soft face as we see him in his picture. As Mr. Pickwick speaks, it is remarkable that both Vice-President and Secretary the two officers have each one arm raised as if in ecstatic rapture clear proof of their subservience to Pickwick.
