Description: Three shocked men standing near a park railing, watching three women being blown into the sky by high winds. The women's legs are on display and two parasols have been blown inside-out. The men's hats have blown off their heads On the following page (E-248-q-026) is a note explaining: Wonders of the day!!! Ladies beware of 'Crinolines rising' versus 'Fenians rising'. Elopement in high life. Strange ascent in the Park ... as witnessed by the horror-stricken Brown, Jones and Robinson when their beloved Maria, Sophia and Jemima were suddenly taken away from their loving arms in the late gale. P. S. I need not observe that the fair Aeronauts have not since been heard of'. The idea of this cartoon was suggested to me by a legitimate scene that took place one day in Queenstown during a gale of wind. The ladies fair were descending a very steep hill when the gale came on but the only loss sustained by the party were a hat or two, some ribbons probably and a chinon [chignon] probably or so.
