Let me alane for whilly-whaing an advocate: it's nae sin to get as muckle flue them for our siller as we can after a', it's but the wind o' their mouth it costs them naething; whereas, in my wretched occupation of a saddler, horse milliner, and harness maker, we are out unconscionable sums just for barkened hides and leather."
