Excerpt from Sir Goodwin's Folly, Vol. 1 of 3: A Story of the Year 1795 "Puffery, sir, downright puffery, that's what I call it, " said Mr. Gattrell, a tall, stout, florid old gentleman of threescore, as he laid the Public Advertiser on the table for the purpose of addressing another old gentleman who sat opposite. It was a bitterly cold evening during the memorably hard winter of 1794-5, and the two seniors were smoking their pipes in a snug inner sanctum of the Antigallican Coffee-house, which was situated behind the Royal Exchange.
