What you’re looking at

This page contains only text—no visible cartoon or illustration. It appears to be from a narrative or serialized story in *The Wasp* magazine, describing a group of thirteen survivors (including their commander) hiding after some conflict. The text mentions their limited resources: sea-biscuits, a small boat, arms, ammunition, fresh water and fruit, and buried treasure they've hidden. A character named Bill Hook is described as suffering from intermittent fever, and Tom Croft is quoted observing their group's size. Without additional context about *The Wasp*'s publication date or the story's title, I cannot identify what historical event, political situation, or satirical target this narrative addresses. The page reads as fiction rather than political commentary.
