Ezekiel shouldered his bundle, trudged off to school, where he lived and studied at the cost of one dollar a week, worked his way to the position of the second lawyer in New Hampshire, and would early have gone to Congress but for his stanch, inflexible Federalism. Daniel Webster, schoolmaster and law-student, was assuredly one of the most interesting of characters.

"Of this place, you say of Northampton, Massachusetts?" "He lives here, but he comes from Virginia." "Is he a sculptor by profession?" "He 's a law-student." Rowland burst out laughing. "He has found something in Blackstone that I never did. He makes statues then simply for his pleasure?" Cecilia, with a smile, gave a little toss of her head. "For mine!" "I congratulate you," said Rowland.

The editor came to their aid, and persuaded an old bookseller to give them four hundred francs for the manuscript. When the book was to be published, they deliberated upon the name of the author. She disliked the scandal of authorship he feared his father's curse; and the editor advised that the name of the law-student should be divided, and no friend would recognize the name.

In the same drama, making much play with the green bag, Wycherley indicates the Widow Blackacre's quarrelsome disposition by decorating her with an enormous green reticule, and makes her son the law-student, stagger about the stage in a gown, and under a heavy burden of green bags.

Indeed, it seemed that he had never adequately realized before how proud a man might well be of descending from a line of such men. The thought struck him that very likely at this identical doorway, two generations back, a poor, out-at-the-elbows, young law-student named Plowden had stood and turned over pages of books he could not dream of buying.

In Lord Eldon's time the case was otherwise. Society saw nothing singular or reprehensible in his conduct when he brought Bessie to live in the little house in Cursitor Street. No one sneered at the young law-student, whose home was a little den in a dingy thoroughfare.

Yet somehow the professor of Biology in the University of London and many other things beside F.R.S., F.Z.S., F.L.S., Gold Medallist of this and that Academy and University abroad does not "see" him as a soldier or a non-commissioned officer in the British Army: law-student is a more likely qualification. However as they near Swansea, Michael Rossiter gives Mr. They separate at Swansea station.

The mode of studying law at Rome bore a very considerable resemblance to the preparation for the English bar. Our modern law-student purchases his admission to the chambers of some special pleader or conveyancer, where he is supposed to learn his future business by copying precedents and answering cases, and he also attends the public lectures at the Inns of Court.

The kind husband would not insist, but went sadly to his work. It was not long before the sheep-pasture was worth a million dollars! Sentiment, you see, is not always an unproductive article. But this case was scarcely so curious as that which presently thrust a goodly capital on the hands of our young law-student.

At the moment when the column set forward, a young law-student, a fair pale Alsatian, of some twenty years, who was in their ranks, asked a captain, who was marching by him with his sword drawn, "Where are we going?" The officer made no reply. Having left the Tuileries, they turned to the right, and followed the quay as far as the Pont de la Concorde.
