The scare crows arrival, or honest Pat giving them an Irish welcome
Napoleon, a skeleton and truly "Boney," marches out of the sea, one foot in the water, the other on shore. The French army that follows in his wake is represented as a band of skeletons. These figures are soldiers that have been reduced to bones by lack of food and harsh treatment, or they represent the thousands of soldiers who have died in battle and are now ghost army. "Honest Pat," the burly Irish equivalent to John Bull, throws a shovel of dirt at Napoleon and his troops. Potatoes litter the ground at Pat's feet, indicating that beyond a doubt the action occurs on Irish turf. A fort in the background is lined with cannons pointed at the sea, behind the wall a banner warns "Man Traps & Spring Guns beware."

Several prints, either naively or with propagandistic intent, suggest amicable collaboration between England and Ireland, others are a plea for national unity.' Caption: Pub by S W Fores No 50 Piccadilly Jun 10 1803 Dialogue: Pat: "Och it is your own pratty figure it is, Master Bonny, d'ye think that pat was to be blarney'd by such Scare Crows, no-no-Bother, the time is gone by, Pat's Eyes are wide open & look ye, if you d'ont immediately Jump into the Sea to save your lives, I will shovel you all there to save mine." Dialogue: Napoleon: "Now my boys halloo away-vil frighten Mr. Bull out of his wits, we vil make him quake like the Dutch, the Italian, the Swiss and the rest of our Friends." Plate Mark: 212
