"No," said Justice Hare, planting himself between her and the door; "that's the way you like to get out of my reach when I am talking to you. You won't go; so sit down again. I'll tell you of your ill-conduct before Mr.
"Well, Dummie," said he, laughing, "I did not mean to hurt you, and there's an end of it; and I am very sorry for the dame's ill-conduct; and so I wish you a good-morning." "Vy, vere be you trotting to, leetle Paul?" said Dummie, grasping him by the tail of the coat. "The deuce a bit I know," answered our hero; "but I think I shall drop a call on Long Ned."
The certainty of shame descending to the daughters would be a powerful means of deterring mothers from ill-conduct; and might probably operate more effectually to restrain licentiousness in high life than heavy damages, or the now transient disgrace of public trial and divorce.
But in the next article, No. 51, he orders that no mercy whatever be shown to men and women of the upper classes when convicted of the same crime.
