[Transcriber's Note: Unlike the other volumes of _The Wit and Humor of America_ in Project Gutenberg, Volume V was not prepared from the "Library Edition," and thus has discontinuous page numbers and will not match the index in Volume X. In addition, a few pieces in Volume V are duplicated in Volume VI, but all have been retained as printed in each edition.]
