'Wilkes, who was considered easily the urgliest man of his day. and whose portrait hears it out. boasted that he could give the handsomest man in England half an hour’s start in the race for favours, and heat him, “Doesn’t Mr Wilkes squint abominably?” someone asked a lady who bad met him. “Yes, ho ties,” she,, replied thoughtfully. “but not more than a gentleman ought to.” -\ 11 impressive tribute that to the fascination of ill-loolcs.
