These were the warders of Hogarth: and the object of that night's meeting was to determine whether he should die, and when, and how; the Land Bill now awaiting the Royal Assent; and on the morrow British high-sea trade to be ruthlessly stopped, failing news of Hogarth.
Gladstone's Home Rule Government. Surely the consistency of the Times in evil-speaking is one of the most precious of our national possessions: On the 30th of June the Royal Assent was given by commission to forty Bills the first Bills which became law in the Queen's reign; and, the clerks in the House of Lords having been accustomed ever since the days of Queen Anne to say "his Majesty" and "Le Roy le veult," there was hopeless bungling over the feminine appellations, now after 130 years revived.
It is urged that the act of I Elizabeth, c. 1, allows that to be heresy which the first four councils determined to be so.

'Maybe you're the Star's correspondent, and maybe you're not, said the Captain, 'I don't see anything here to prove it. Slade argued an hour; no go. Remember how you caught him?" he inquired of Slade. The reporter grinned assent. "After the old man had turned him down for good, Slade fished down in his warbag and hauled out an old tattered document from an oilskin case.
The only process by which the fee can be alienated is a fine to which both husband and wife are parties and to which she gives her assent after a separate examination. "II.
