Henry Wheeler Shaw was born in Lanesbore, Mass. He was a great American humorist who became known under the penname of John Billings.
In 1858, Shaw settled in New York, and wrote for newspapers. At first his writings attracted little notice. In 1860 he wrote an article that he called An Essay on the Muel. His funny spelling and bad gram mar suited Shaw’ s philosophy and his articles became greatly popular.

Before his death in 1885 he also wrote John Billings Trump cards and Old Probabilities.
