Download Punchinello, Volume 2, No. 27, October 1, 1870 eBook by Various : """HALF a year, half a year, half a year onward,"" has PUNCHINELLO advanced since he wafted his first number to the four quarters of the globe.His road has not been a very easy one to travel.Bad characters lurked behind the fences, from which they would sometimes take a sneak shot at the Showman as he passed. These fellows were awfully bad shots, though, never so much as hitting the van in which the show travels. PUNCHINELLO'S return fire always set the scamps a-scampering, and all they had for their pains was the loss of their ammunition, and the discovery that the row kicked up by them had attracted crowds of people to the spot, so that PUNCHINELLO'S show was capitally advertised by their noise."
