My examples are chiefly drawn, not from the very inferior, nor from the most eminent ranks; neither from the retailer of a shop, nor the claimant of a tabouret,* or les grandes ou petites entrees; but from the gentry, those of easy fortunes, merchants, &c. in fact, from people of that degree which it would be fair to cite as what may be called genteel society in England.
When the matter was brought before him the magistrate ordered the soldier to be placed under arrest, and sent for Madame de Verré to give her version of the affair. The lady declined to have anything to do with the claimant, although she admitted that there were some circumstances which told in his favour.
That every person that is an Actual claimant is entitled to hold 320 Acres of land until such time as it comes into market. Resolved 2d. That any person who lives on their claim or is continually improving the same is an actual Claimant. Resolved 3d. Resolved 4th. That $10, Monthly shall hold a claim thereafter. Resolved 5th.
'And who is to keep the joint purse? asked Mrs. Smith, not without a touch of grand irony. 'Me, of course, said Crinkett. 'A man always must have the money. 'I'd sooner have fourteen years for perjury, like the Claimant, said Mrs. Smith, with a grand resolve that, come what might, she would stick to her own money. But at last it was decided.
'Secularization, in like manner, owes its birth to the long and weary negotiations which preceded the Treaty of Westphalia . Whenever it proved difficult to find anywhere else compensation for some powerful claimant, there was always some abbey or bishopric which with its revenues might be seized, stripped of its ecclesiastical character, and turned into a secular possession.
Had he any good reason whatever for believing this individual to be William Stanley, he would instantly resign the property to him, at every cost. All probability was, however, thus far, against the identity of the claimant; and unless Hazlehurst could believe in his good faith and honesty, every inch of the ground should be disputed to the best of his ability. Mr.
Anthony Biddulph, another convert, and a remote connection of the Tichborne family, had become godfather, the bells of Alresford rang louder; and nobody seemed for a moment to doubt the right of the Claimant to the estates and title. Still it was felt strange that "Sir Roger" went near none of his old friends. He had left Paris without an effort to see his former circle of acquaintances.
But some Norman writers represent Harold as crowned by Stigand Archbishop of Canterbury. This was not, in the ideas of those times, a trifling question. A coronation was then not a mere pageant; it was the actual admission to the kingly office. Till his crowning and anointing, the claimant of the crown was like a bishop-elect before his consecration.
The great man listened and replied: "I have noticed you scattering your means round here pretty freely but you haven't said 'turkey' to me." Surprised but glad and unabashed the claimant said "I was coming to that," produced a thousand-dollar bank roll and entered into an understanding as to what was to be done next day, when the bill was due on the calendar.
"Well, of course, that's for the courts to decide," agreed Bob, "and I don't claim to know much about law nor want to." "Me neither!" agreed the mountaineer fervently. "But I've known of a dozen cases just like yours that went against the claimant. There was the Brown case in Idaho, for instance, that was exactly like yours.
