I said to myself this: Now, here's McVickar; if he could have a good, clean-cut young man in this State representing his railroad a man who not only knew his way around in a court-room, but who might also know how to plead his client's case before the public if McVickar could have such a young fellow as that for his corporation counsel, and would agree to make his railroad company live somewhere within shouting distance of such a young fellow's ideals, we might all be persuaded to bury the hatchet and live together in peace and amity."
The notary had made inquiries, in his client's interest, as to Messieurs Protez and Chiffreville, and found that their known integrity was sufficient guarantee as to the honesty of their operations with Monsieur Claes, to whom, moreover, they frequently sent information of results obtained by chemists in Paris, for the purpose of sparing him expense.
She occupied the client's chair in Merton's office, and, as she sat there and smiled, Merton acknowledged to himself that he had never met a client so charming and so perplexing. Miss McCabe had been educated, as Merton knew, at an aristocratic Irish convent in Paris, a sanctuary of old names and old creeds.
Sharp's benevolent interferences, and appeals to judge and jury on the score of mono-mania, and shruggings-up of shoulders at his client's folly, and virtuous indignation at the evident leaning of the court the murderer detailed what he had done.

And nearly every day there happens instances where the most subtle casuistry will fail and the finger of conscience point unhesitatingly.
Neville carried himself very well through the interview, assuming with perfect ease the manners of the great and rich man who had only to give his orders with a certainty that they would be obeyed. Mr. Crowe, when he went out from the young man's presence, had no longer any doubt on his mind as to his client's pecuniary capability.
My mother must have been a very inquisitive woman; I have no doubt I'm marked with a note of interrogation somewhere. My feelings I smother, but thou hast been the cause of this anguish, my upon my word, said Mr Swiveller, checking himself and falling thoughtfully into the client's chair, 'I should like to know how they use her!
"This deed seems to convey to my client's grandfather that is to say, Mistress Wynne's father certain lands situate in Merionethshire, Wales.
