Excerpt from The King's Judges: An Original Comedy in Four Acts
William. Here, in New Haven, you are perfectly safe; and there is little danger of further annoyance.
Whalley If we could catch this bear alive, that would make a fine present to our old friend, Sir Robert Phillip.
Gofe. So be it, Whalley. On Monday next our friend Graham shall give us an introduction to his bearship.
Graham. Gentlemen, I fear it will not prove a very handy catch, if you intend to secure this bear with your empty hands, I can assure you.
Whalley. If I remember right - I have read it some where - to catch a bear alive, the best way is to dig a few deep holes in places where he frequently does pass, and cover them with brushes.
