Who's The Young Squire? Is it one of these two, or are they waiting on the young squire to come down? Why can I find lots of artwork by Alfred W. Cooper (British, d. 1901), and almost no information about him? By the way, this is a "tail piece," and that's not a pun; a tail piece is a design or illustration at the foot of a page or the end of a chapter or book.
