Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit, Vol. 2 of 2
Poll had a very small, shrill, treble voice, which might have led the wags of Kingsgate Street to insist the. More upon his feminine designation. He had a tender heart, too for, when he had a good commission to provide three or four score sparrows for a shooting-match, he would observe, in a compassionate tone, how singular it was that sparrows should have been made expressly for such purposes. The question, whether men were made to shoot them, never entered into Poll's philosophy.
