There is a defective passage in Gaius, which seems to say that liability may sometimes be escaped by giving up even the dead body of the offender. /1/ So Livy relates that, Brutulus Papins having caused a breach of truce with the Romans, the Samnites determined to surrender him, and that, upon his avoiding disgrace and punishment by suicide, they sent his lifeless body.
But," the Papins and Dulangprés came back to his face, and he shook his head. "But otherwise no. There we stand still. She will not say it." Barclay squinted at the man who sat so complacently in the glow of the firelight, with his cane between his toes and his gloves lightly fanning the air.
The Papins and the Dulangprés shrugged their shoulders and waved their hands through Brownwell rather nastily as he answered, "Circumstances, Mr. Barclay, circumstances!" "You're not getting along fast enough, eh?" retorted Barclay. "Yes and no," returned Brownwell. "What do you mean?" asked Barclay, half divining the truth.
