TitleA Hint to Magistrates or a Rowland for your Oliver
Date20 May 1801
DescriptionOn the left an officious-looking magistrate sits in an armchair next to a table on which are books and an inkpot. He leans forward in his chair and addresses the man that has been brought before him, saying: "You jolter headed fellow, I'll have you inoculated for stupidity."
On the right is a yokel, wearing a smock and holding his hat. He replies:
"That would be thrown away upon your Worship, for you seem to have had it the natural way."
