Excerpt from A Story With a Vengeance: Or How Many Joints May Go to a Tale; Inscribed to the Greater Number of Railway Travellers, and Dedicated to the Rest According to English custom, each looked and spoke as utterly unconscious that any other person was making the same demand as himself. Not so a fifth, who, while the vendor of news was selecting his journals, said, - "Then give me some other paper, which I can by and by have the pleasure of exchanging with one of these gentlemen. Punch! thank you." The other four gentlemen looked at the speaker. "A-hem!" said one, mildly. "Ah!" said a second, regretfully. "Well," said a third, dubiously. "Yes," said a fourth, frankly. So said No. L, "the Chronicle." So said No. II., "the Herald." So said No. III., "the Post." And the journals were severally handed in and opened in all their amplitude, making a couple of ramparts of print across the carriage. "Dear me, how dreadful!" said the Chronicle. "What, what?" chimed in all the other journals. And the Chronicle read in a tremulous tone - "Second Edition. [By electric Telegraph.] Dreadful Accident On The Great Western Railway." "Oh! oh! oh!" groaned all the other journals. "It's in mine, too," said the Herald. "And mine, too," said the Post. "And mine, too," said the Times.
