description In this black and white cartoon, a free-for-all has broken out between the men in the kitchen.  Jack Downing, depicted on the left is in mid-swing with Andrew Jackson's hickory cane, while fists and a frying pan are being tossed in all directions in this chaotic scene.  Between Downing's feet appear two rather irratated dogs due to the dispute and a table and chairs are thrown to the corner of the room.  To the far left in the crack of the door is Andrew Jackson peering at a safe distance as Downing has taken responsibility for the brawl at hand.  The description below the cartoon is Jack Downing's experience of winning the fight.
