Halfpenny," he continued, turning and pointing contemptuously to Mr. Tertius, "as this is wholly informal, I'll begin with an informal yet pertinent question, to you. Do you know who that man really is?" "I believe that gentleman, sir, to be Mr. John Christopher Tertius, and my very good and much-esteemed friend," replied Mr. Halfpenny, with asperity. "Pshaw!" sneered Barthorpe.
The skill of a counsel in examining or cross-examining a witness, for instance, is shown almost as much by what he avoids bringing out as by what he brings out, and no witness is allowed to volunteer any statement lest he should tell something which, however pertinent in reality, the rules pronounce inadmissible.
"Because rightly considered in their connection they are not charges, but pertinent and useful suggestions in answer to the queries of a correspondent who stated facts which are inexplicable." "Don't you know that I know they are false?" "If you do, the proper course is simply to deny them and court an investigation."
"She's a doggoned purty critter," said the little man in large trousers, placidly. He had not appeared to listen to the conversation, but, as this pertinent remark proved, it had not been lost on him. His observation was greeted with a general laugh, which seemed to imply that the speaker had a character which his speech sustained. "Whar did ye see her, Stamps?" was asked.
So he waited till he saw Leonore seated, and then joined her. "Won't you sit out this dance with me?" he asked. Leonore looked surprised. "He's getting very clever," she thought, never dreaming that Peter's cleverness, like so many other people's nowadays, consisted in a pertinent use of quotations. Parrot cleverness, we might term it.
Where a judgment has been rendered on a finding of facts made by a judge in a cause of an equitable nature, this finding can, in the courts of the United States and in many of the States, be reversed on any point on appeal. For this purpose also all the evidence that was before him, or all that is pertinent to questions involved, must be reported to the court above.
There was a strong resemblance to the UFO's in the Tremonton Movie. But I'm not sure that this is the answer. In five days we had given the panel of scientists every pertinent detail in the history of the UFO, and it was up to them to tell us if they were real some type of vehicle flying through our atmosphere.
For, as skepticism is in one sense the handmaid of truth, discontent is the mother of progress. The man is comparatively of little use in the world who is contented. There is another thought pertinent here. It is this: that no man, however humble, can live a full life if he lives to himself alone.
The truth is, however, that he did not cant, and was not a hypocrite. One or two observations here may perhaps be pertinent. The accusation of hypocrisy, if we mean lofty assertion, and occasional and even conspicuous moral failure, may be brought against some of the greatest figures in history.
"You're very impertinent!" she said hotly and, as she felt, foolishly. "I'm very pertinent, really. By the way, my name is Glover John Glover, of the firm of Rennett, Glover and Simpson. The gentleman at your side is Mr. Charles Rennett, my senior partner. We are a firm of solicitors, but how long we shall remain a firm," he added pointedly, "depends rather upon you."
