For all that, Lord Barnard was a worthy gentleman and a brave officer. While Lord Barnard was resuming his seat, the Clerk, who read by routine, hesitated for an instant; he readjusted his spectacles, and leaned over the register with renewed attention; then, lifting up his head, he said, "My Lord Fermain Clancharlie, Baron Clancharlie and Hunkerville." Gwynplaine arose. "Non-content," said he.
Carriages, mostly open, drove up and down it for two or three hours; and the contents were shot at with handfuls of comfits from the windows, in the hope of making them as non-content as possible, while they returned the fire to the best of their inferior ability.
Underwood, 'you might, like John Gilpin, "ride on horseback after we." 'Felix looks non-content, said Mr. Audley. 'I am afraid I was not in his programme. Speak out let us have it. 'Why, said Felix, looking down, 'our little ones all wanted to have you; but then we thought we should all be obliged to come home too soon, unless you took the service for Papa.
"That fellow a peer of England?" "Go on!" "No, no!" "Yes, yes!" The Lord Chancellor was much disturbed. A deaf peer, James Butler, Duke of Ormond, placing his hand to his ear like an ear trumpet, asked Charles Beauclerk, Duke of St. Albans, "How has he voted?" "Non-content."

The Supreme Council of Basutoland will consist of the leading chiefs and the Resident; the minor chiefs of Basutoland will form a council with the sub-residents. These minor councils can be appealed against by any non-content to the Supreme Council. "Art. 6. A hut-tax will be collected of 10s. per hut by the chiefs, and will be paid to the Resident and sub-resident. "Art. 7.
Each Lord, on his name being called, will rise and answer content, or non-content, and will be at liberty to explain the motives of his vote, if he thinks fit to do so. Clerk, take the vote." The Clerk of the House, standing up, opened a large folio, and spread it open on a gilded desk. This book was the list of the Peerage.
"If it happens that any member of the Commons should be so bold as to speak to the prejudice of the House of Lords, he is called to the bar of the House to be reprimanded, and, occasionally, to be sent to the Tower." There is the same distinction in voting. In the House of Lords they vote one by one, beginning with the junior, called the puisne baron. Each peer answers "Content," or "Non-content."
