Ginx’s Baby: His Birth And Other Misfortunes, A Satire

1870 novel. On the day when our hero was born, Mr. and Mrs. Ginx were living at Number Five, Rosemary Street, in the City of Westminster. The being then and there brought into the world was not the only human entity to which the title of Ginx’s Baby was or had been appropriate. Ginx had been married to Betsy Hicks at St. John’s, Westminster, on the twenty-fifth day of October, 18-, as appears from the marriage lines retained by Betsy Ginx, and carefully collated by me with the original register. Our hero was their thirteenth child.
