IS WHOLLY DEVOTED TO A FULL AND FAITHFUL REPORT OF THE.
MEMORABLE TRIAL OF BARDELL AGAINST PICKWICK 'I wonder what the foreman of the jury, whoever he'll be, has got for breakfast,' said Mr.Snodgrass, by way of keeping up a conversation on the eventful morning of the fourteenth of February.
'Ah!' said Perker, 'I hope he's got a good one.' 'Why so ?' inquired Mr.

'A good, contented, well-breakfasted juryman is a capital thing to get hold of.
