Let us consider.

The procurator Interrogarius Mealterum persendsº us this proposer.

Honuphrius is a concupiscent exservicemajor who makes dishonest propositions to all. He is considered to have committed, ^|shinvoking droit d'oreiller,^sh| simple infidelities with Felicia, a virgin, and to be practising for unnatural coits with Eugenius and Jeremias, twoº or three philadelphians. Honuphriusº, Felicia, Eugenius and Jeremias are consanguineous to the lowest degree. Anita,º the wife of Honuphriusº, has been told by her tirewoman, Fortissa, that Honuphrius has blasphemously confessed under voluntary chastisement that he has instructed his slave Mauritius, a widower,º to facilitate their neighbour Magravius,º a commercialº emulous of Honuphrius, to solicit the chastity of Anita. Anitaº isº informed by some illegitimate children
{f10, 446}
of Fortissa with Mauritius (theº supposition is Ware's) that Gillia, the schismatical wife of Magravius, is visited clandestinely by Barnabas, the advocate of Honuphrius, an immoral person who has been corrupted by Jeremias. Gillia (aº cooler blend, D'Alton insists),º ex equo with Poppea, Arancita, Clara, Marinuzza, Indra and Iodina,º has been tenderly debauched (inº Halliday's view)º by Honuphrius,º and Magravius knows from spies that Anita has formerly committed double sacrilege with Michael, vulgo Cerularius, a perpetual curateº who wishes to seduce Eugenius. Magravius threatens to have Anita molested by Sulla, an orthodox savage (and leader of a band of twelve mercenaries, the Sullivani)º who desires to procure Felicia for Gregorius, Leo, Vitellius and Macdugalius, four excavators, if she will not yield to him and also deceive Honuphrius by rendering conjugal duty when demanded. Anita,º who claims to have discovered incestuous temptations from Jeremias and Eugenius,º would yield to the lewdness of Honuphrius to appease the savagery of Sulla and the mercernariness of the twelve Sullivaniº and (asº Gilbert at first suggested)º to save the virginity of Felicia for Magravius,º when converted by Michael after the death of Gillia,º but she fears thatº by allowing his marital rights she may cause reprehensible conduct between Eugenius and Jeremias. Michael, who has formerly debauched Anita, dispenses her from yielding to Honuphrius who pretends publicly to possess his conjunct in thirtynine several manners (turpiter! affirm ex cathedris Gerontes Cambronses) for carnal hygiene whenever he has rendered himself impotent to consummate by subdolence. Anita is disturbed,º but Michael comminates that he will reserve her case tomorrow for the ordinary Guglielmus even if she should practise a pious fraud during affrication which, from experience, she knows (accordingº to Wadding)º to be leading to nullity. Fortissa, however, is encouraged by Gregorius, Leo, Vitelliusº and Magdugalius, reunitedly,º to warn Anita by describing the strong chastisements of Honuphrius and the depravities (turpissimas!) of Canicula, the deceased wife of Mauritius, with Sulla, theº simoniac,º who isº abnegand and repents. Has he hegemony and shall she submit?

This, layreadersº and gentilemen, is perhaps the commonest of all casesº arising out of umbrella history in connection with the wood industries in our courts of litigation. D'Oyly Owens holds (^|shthough Finn Magnusson of himself holds also^sh|) that so long as there is a joint deposit account in the two names a mutual obligation is posited. Owens cites Brerfuchs and Warren, a foreign firm^|sh, since disseized,^sh| registered as Tangos, Limited,º for the sale of certain proprietary articles. The action,º which was at the instance of the
{f10, 447}
trustee of the Heathen Church Emergencyº fund, suing by its trustee, a resigned civil servant, for the payment of tithes due,º was heard by Judge Doyle and also by a common jury. No question arose as to the debt for which vouchers spoke volumes. The defence alleged that payment had been made effective. The fund trustee, one Jucundus Fecundus Xero Pecundus Coppercheap, counterclaimed that payment was invalid,º having been tendered to creditor under cover of a crossed cheque, signed in the ordinary course,º in the name of Wieldhelm, hurls crossº, ^|shvoucher copy provided^sh|, and drawn by the senior partner only by whom the lodgment of the species had been effected but in their joint names. The bank particularised, the National Miseryº (now almost entirely in the hands of the four chief bondholders for value in Tangos, Limited),º declined to pay the draft, though there were ample reserves to meet the liability, whereupon the trusty Coppercheap negotiatedº it for and on behalf of the fund of the thing to a client of his, a notary, from whom, on consideration,º he received in exchange legal relief as between trusthee and bethrust,º with thanks. Since thenº the cheque, a good washable pink, embossed D you Dº noº 11 hundred and thirty 2, good for the figure and face, had been circulating in the country for over thirtynine years among holders of Pango stock, a rival concern,º though not one demonetised farthing had ever spun or fluctuated across the counter in the semblance of hard coin or liquid cash. The jury (a sour dozen of stout fellows all of whom were curiously named after Doylesº) naturally disagreed, jointlyº and severally,º and the belligerent judge, disagreeing with the allied jurors' disagreement, went outside his jurisfiction altogether and ordered a garnishee attachment to the neutral firm. No mandamusº could locate the depleted Whilom Breyfawkesº as he had entered into an ancient moratorium,º dating back to the times of the early barters,º and only the junior partner Barren could be found, who entered an appearance and turned up, add woman in,º among the male jurors,º an obsoleteº turfwoman originallyº from the proletarian class withº still a good title to her sexname of Ann Doyle, 2 Coppinger's Cottages, the Doyle Countryº. Doyle (Ann), upon a notice of motion and after service of the motion by interlocutory injunction,º having regretfully left the juryboxers, protested cheerfully on the stand in a long jurymiad in re corset checks,º delivered in Doylish,º that she had often, inº supply to brusk demands rising almost to bollion point,º discounted Mr Brakeforth's first of all in exchange at nine months from date without issue and, to be strictly literal, unbottled in corrubberationº a current account of how she had been made at sight for services rendered the payee-drawee of unwashable blank assignations, sometimes pinkwilliams (laughter)º but more often of the crème-de-citron,º vair émail paoncoque or marshmallow

series, which she, as bearer, used to endorse, adhesively,º to her various payers-drawers who in most cases were identified by the timber papers as wellknown tetigists of the city and suburban. The witness, at her own request, asked if she might and wrought something between the sheets of music paper which she had accompanied herself with for the occasion and,º this having been handed up for the bench to look at in camera, Coppinger's doll, as she was called (anniasº, MackErse'sº Dar, the adopted child),º then proposed to jerrykin and jureens and every jim, jock and jarry in that little green courtinghousie for her satisfaction and as a whole act of settlement to reamalgamate herself, tomorrow perforce, in pardonership with the permanent suing fond trustee, Monsignore Pepigi, under the new style of Will Breakfast and Sparrem, as, when all his cognisances had been estreated, he seemed to proffer the steadiest interest towards her, but this prepoposal was ruled out on appeal by Judge Jeremy Doylerº who,º reserving judgment in a matter of courts and reversing the findings of the lower correctional, found, beyond doubt of treasonº, fending the dissassents of the pickpackpanel, twelve as upright judaces as ever let down their thoms, and, occupante extremum scabie,º ^|shhanded down^sh| to the jury of the Liffeyº that, as a matter of tact, the woman they gave as free was born into contractual incapacity (the Calif of Man v the Eaudelusk Company) when, how and where Mamy's Mancipium Actº did not apply and thereforeº held supremely that, as no property in law can exist in a corpse (Hal Kilbride v Una Bellina),º Pepigi's pact was pure piffle (loud laughter) and Wharrem couldº whistle for the rhino.
