The Caorsin seizing Master Walter by the Throat, 1857. Scene from "Master Walter, the Physician. A Tale of Old London": 'Master Walter could read no more. He flung the paper wildly in the air, and would have rushed from the spot; but the Caorsin caught him by the throat..."Miserable quacksalver!" cried he; "whose were the chirographs on which I lent thee two thousands marks?" The leech could not reply, for his companion's question filled him with a horrid foreboding'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
