The census returns of 1790 give no such name, but they list James Pendarvis in a group comprising a white man, a free colored person and 123 slaves, and also a Mrs. Persons, free colored, with 136 slaves. Slaveholdings by colored townsmen were likewise fairly frequent.
The two lawyers had risen hastily when Chief Justice Pendarvis entered; he responded to their greetings and seated himself at his desk, reaching for the silver cigar box and taking out a panatela. Gustavus Adolphus Brannhard picked up the cigar he had laid aside and began puffing on it; Leslie Coombes took a cigarette from his case.
Kellogg's bail," Judge Pendarvis said, as a couple of attendants began getting Mallin loose from the veridicator. "Are you also canceling Jack Holloway's?"

Lord Rainsforth had a great respect for talent, and a warm interest in such of the young as seemed to him to possess it. By talent, indeed, his family had risen, and were strikingly characterized.

There's nothing wrong with it whatever, and if anything's done with it, it may cause serious damage." "I don't think I understand, Dr. Ortheris." "Well, it was a perfectly natural mistake.
