FROM THE MORGUE
Copyright 2007 by William A. Mays, Proprietor
From Ulysses
By James Joyce
--A dishonoured wife, says the citizen, that's what's the cause of all our misfortunes.
--And here she is, says Alf, that was giggling over the
Police Gazette with Terry on the counter, in all her warpaint.
--Give us a squint at her, says I.
And what was it only one of the smutty yankee pictures Terry borrows off of Corny Kelleher. Secrets for enlarging your private parts. Misconduct of society belle. Norman W. Tupper, wealthy Chicago contractor, finds pretty but faithless wife in lap of officer Taylor. Belle in her bloomers misconducting herself and her fancy man feeling for her tickles and Norman W. Tupper bouncing in with his peashooter just in time to be late after she doing the trick of the loop with officer Taylor.
