| Summary | "Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 109, October 19 1895" by Various is a remarkable collection of satirical essays, humor, and illustrations crafted during the late 19th century. This periodical showcases sharp wit and societal commentary characteristic of the Victorian era, reflecting the cultural and political landscape of the time. The topics range widely, addressing issues from high society scandals to humorous takes on everyday life in London. Throughout this volume, readers encounter a variety of skits, illustrations, and commentary aimed at contemporary events and social mores. One notable piece, "The Thirty-One-and-Sixpenny Dreadful," provides a satirical courtroom scene involving Lady D'Edbroke, a character embroiled in scandal and reflecting the absurdities of high society. Other entries cover themes such as the military command, social dynamics at the Highland Gathering, and amusing verses on the trials of public transportation. The humor pivots around clever wordplay, societal critique, and colorful characters, inviting readers to revel in the clever observations and jests that made "Punch" a beloved fixture of British satire.
