As if any one sellin' his beer could help bein' fined!" "How is that?" said Peter, inferring that selling poor beer was a finable offence, yet ignorant of the statute. "Why yez see, sir, the b'ys don't like that beer an' sensible they are so they go to other places, an' don't come to my place." "But that doesn't explain your fines." "Av course it does.
"How on earth did you meet her?" "She was traveling with Mr. and Mrs. Selden you know John Selden. She has lived with Mrs. Selden ever since she left school; they were friends when they were girls together." Cleve gathered up his reins, and nodding to Mr. Frank Belmar, drove at a finable rate up the avenue and through the park.

He ordained that if any one commit murder, be may, with the assistance of his kindred, pay within a twelvemonth the fine of his crime; and if they abandon him, he shall alone sustain the deadly feud or quarrel with the kindred of the murdered person: his own kindred are free from the feud, but on condition that they neither converse with the criminal, nor supply him with meat or OTHER NECESSARIES: if any of them, after renouncing him, receive him into their house, OR GIVE HIM ASSISTANCE, they are finable to the king, and are involved in the feud.
