Illustration to issue no. 17; in a ramshackle building, an unpreposessing young woman dandles a large child on her knee, holding a glass to its lips from which it eagerly drinks; they are watched by a pleased-looking man seated beside them, a woman standing at right in odd black garments, holding a bottle, a stoutly benevolent older woman standing behind to left, and a man playing the pipes. 4 May 1832
