The Wasp — 1879 — page 265: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily serialized fiction rather than political satire. It continues "Chapter III" of a story involving characters named Bertie, Hilarie, Charlie, and Mr. Ross, discussing social situations and romantic entanglements among what appear to be upper-class or military figures. The text references "General Dalrymple" and mentions "Lancashire" training, suggesting military contexts. However, without visible illustrations on this page and given the domestic dialogue focus, this appears to be entertainment fiction rather than satirical political commentary. The page number (615) indicates this is mid-publication serialization rather than standalone satirical content typical of The Wasp's political cartoons.
