Description

A fearsome woman is beating her husband with a cat and breaking a jug of water over him, as he begs from a judge who is blind-folded.

Extended Title - Ill-treated husband - Save me, Your Worship, or I shall be done to death. These jugs of boiling food, and kittens, and rocking chairs will be the death of me. Justice (who possibly knows what it is to be there, but whose hands are tied) - Impossible, my poor man, impossible! The laws have all been made for the protection of wives - not husbands.
