The cartoon is accompanied with the following monologue:

     THE DEVIL—“Hello!—— Hello, there!—— Hello, is this Central?—— Well, give me Auburn Prison?”
     “Hello! is this Auburn prison?—— Is this the Warden?”
     “How do you do, Warden? Say, Warden, will you please hurry up that little job you have on hand for the ‘28th?’ I’ve got a special punishment ready and I’m getting anxious to use it on him.”
     “All right; thank you!”
