- Depiciton: A dashing young officer . . . .is laying ardent siege to the ordinary person of a rich dowager, fat, not fair, and decidedly forty. Indeed, the lady is more than old enough to be the mother of her insidious admirer. . . . . The lady, a vain piece of antiquated and frivolous vulgarity, is loaded with massive jewellry . . . . Her feathers are profuse, and she wears a boa of an extinct kind, famous in the annals of contemporary fashions, known as a rattle-snake.
