No: the Deuce's grandson. (MOTHER: What's your name?) Silas Steele, jun. I'm the little one, and dad's the big Steele. I'm travelling for Busted's Balm. (MOTHER: Where do you expect to find it?) 'Tis found already. And, to spread abroad the glorious fact, I've taken a large contract; and it's the biggest undertaking any undertaker ever undertook. I never realized before that there was such a strong objection to clean white paint; but I've found it out now, for I've been peppered by indignant shot-guns, pounded by angry broomsticks, booted by revengeful brogans, and bulldozed by man's faithful friends, the puppies.
