Henry Ward Beecher, as Gulliver, holds on his knee a small building labeled “Plymouth Church” and reaches his left hand out, in a friendly gesture, toward a crowd of “Liliputians” who are scampering about, some with ropes labeled “Partisan Rope, Caucus Rope, [and] Political Slavery,” others with signs that state “Down with him. He defeated Blaine!!, No freedom Allowed in Politics, [and] Edict of Ostracism.”
