He no longer cared much about his work. What was the use of making a reputation or earning large fees when one had nothing to spend them for? All his thoughts were fixed upon the wife and child he had lost. He was reminded of Henriette in a thousand ways, and each way brought him a separate pang of grief.
They had only £50 per annum to give; but if we would agree to divide it betwixt us, and go into one lodging, we might both be able to struggle through, they would pay our entrance fees at the Free Normal Seminary, and provide us with the books required; and perhaps they might be able to add a little to the sum promised to each of us.
"You need all the fees you can get to pay Belle Bingley's bills." Burlingame did not wince. He made no reply to the challenge that he was the chief supporter of a certain wanton thereabouts. "The time for your option to take ten thousand dollars' worth of shares in the syndicate is up," he said; "and I am instructed to inform you that Messrs.
Nobody's been getting rapped on the' head? Didn't see no blood, though, that's true. Well, I don't like to be sold, that's a fact, but there's no help for it. Here's the young man's change, Doctor, warrant sixty-six, my fees one dollar."
The fees are to be raised, but the increase cannot be levied upon me; it only applies to those who have not commenced their studies at the period of raising. Speak to R. Alcock about this. I daily meet troops of Aberdonians. I dined on Friday last with a young man, Fordyce, and yesterday with Mr J. Jopp. I calculate I have about fifty fellow-citizens connected with law here....
What would a laryer be if he did not know how to cheat a witness and humbug a jury? knows he is lying, why is he lying? for love of his fees, or his fame like, which gets fees; Augh! is not that cheating others? The doctor, too, Master Fillgrave, for instance? " "Say no more of doctors; I abandon them to your satire, without a word." "The lying knaves!
"What did you do?" Yaverland had asked, expecting to hear of some generous offer to pay her fees, and remembering that he had heard that the Scotch were passionate about affairs of education. "I offered her a situation as typist here, as my typist had just left," said Mr. Mactavish James, with an ineffable air of self-satisfaction.
It was derived from the rents of the royal domains, from fees, from fines, from wine licenses, from the first fruits and tenths of benefices, from the receipts of the Post Office, and from that part of the excise which had, immediately after the Restoration, been granted to Charles the Second and to his successors for ever in lieu of the feudal services due to our ancient kings.
The fees were reduced a few months later to £3, of which the House Fund received £2 13s. 4d., and the Bursar 6s. 8d. Students under fourteen years of age and over eighteen were not allowed to matriculate into the ordinary classes except in very exceptional cases. Students who failed to pass this examination were allowed to enter the College and were formed into a separate class.
Practically every Canadian seigneur had the judicial prerogative; he could establish a court in his seigneury, appoint its judge or judges, impose penalties upon the habitants, and put the fees or costs in his own pocket. In France this was a great source of emolument, and too many seigneurs used their courts to yield income rather than to dispense even-handed justice.
