Did you write that letter ?" "No, my lord." Counsel waited for the judge to note the reply, then proceeded.
"You have lately corresponded with Lady Bassett, I think ?" "Yes.

Her ladyship opened a correspondence with me." "It is a lie!" roared Sir Charles Bassett from the door of the grand jury room.
"Silence in the court!" _The Judge._--Who made that unseemly remark?
_Sir Charles._--I did, my lord.

My wife never corresponded with the cur.
_The Plaintiff._--It is only one insult more, gentlemen, and as false as the rest.

Permit me, my lord.

My own counsel would never have put the question.
