An orchestra plays on the balcony, and one of the bridesmaids is being proposed to by a man on one knee. Below this scene is one of a funeral procession, with the Salvation Army leading the way, followed by funeral attendants dressed in black mourning attire crying into fire buckets. A glass hearse pulled by four horses follows, attended by weeping women. Towards the back of the procession, a wagon labelled 'Oney Higgins' rides, with a man atop it playing a grand piano. Other carriages follow Inscriptions: Recto - beneath image - E.F. Hiscocks [in ink]; Recto - beneath image - A fashionable page [in pencil] Quantity: 1 original cartoon(s).
