Description A tight squeeze to get into a London cab. A tighter one to get into a Boston cab. His struggle to get in a bus. Those Elevated R.R. stairs are an awful treadmill to the weighty man. Obese Party. These Coupe's are only big enough for one. Had to hire another one for my wife. In a Rail Road Train. Lady - I believe these seats were made for two, please move and allow me to sit down. N.B. Poor man - he can't make himself smaller. Papa - "You'll have to get out you weigh more than my pony." The Fat Man had his troubles even horseback riding.
