He was noisy in the gentlemen's dressing-room.

The stories he told there were of such a character, and he told them so loudly, that more than once some husband, whose wife was in the neighboring room, had remonstrated with him.

Sligo Moultrie, during one of the winters that he passed in the city after his marriage, had a fierce quarrel with Abel for that very reason.

They would have come to blows but that their friends parted them.
Mr.Moultrie sent a friend with a note the following morning, and Mr.
Newt acknowledged that he had been rude.
In the evening, at General Belch's, Abel was presented to all the guests.
Mr.Ele was happy to remember a previous occasion upon which he had had the honor, etc.

Mr.Enos Slugby (Chairman of our Ward Committee, whispered Belch, audibly, as he introduced him) was very glad to know a gentleman who bore so distinguished a name.
