United States Supreme Court
88 U.S. 636
Moore v. Mississippi
The only error relied upon in the argument here relates to the action of the Circuit Court of the State in sustaining the demurrer to the plea.
We are not required to re-examine the judgment of a State court simply because a Federal question may have been decided. To give us jurisdiction it must appear that such a question 'was necessarily involved in the decision.' The old rule, established by early cases, restricted our inquiries as to the existence and decision of the question 'to the face of the record.' Previous to the act of 1867, it was uniformly held, except as to the State of Louisiana, where a peculiar practice prevails, that we would not look into the opinions of the courts to ascertain what had been decided. Since that act, however, in Murdock v. Memphis, we intimated that we might, under some circumstances, examine those opinions, when properly authenticated, as far as might be useful for the purpose of ascertaining that fact, but at the same time were careful to say that, 'after all, the record of the case, its pleadings, bills of exceptions, judgments, evidence, in short, its record, whether it be a case in law or equity, must be the chief foundation of inquiry; and while we are not prepared to fix any absolute limit to the sources of inquiry under the new act, we feel quite sure it was not intended to open the scope of it to any loose range of investigation.' We are not now called upon to fix this limit. It is sufficient for all the purposes of this case to hold as we do, that if the record shows upon its face that a Federal question was not necessarily involved and does not show that one was raised, we will not go outside of it, to the opinion or elsewhere, to ascertain whether one was in fact decided.
In this case the record shows clearly upon its face that the decision of such a question was not required. The indictment was for selling lottery tickets and keeping a gaming table. The plea, although to the whole indictment, met only part of it. The charge of keeping a gaming table was left entirely unanswered.
A plea to be good as a bar to the whole indictment must meet the whole case. If it does not it will be held bad upon demurrer.
The demurrer to this plea was, therefore, properly sustained upon this ground. Such being the case it is a matter of no consequence to us that the court may have gone further and decided a Federal question. The decision of such a question was not necessarily involved in the determination of the cause.
DISMISSED.

# Mr. Bunt/Setting

​SETTING
One set is used throughout. It is an open glade in the forest. The trees and flowers center about a Maple Tree, beside which is aa low hill of yellow buttercups. The changes of scene are effected by what I might best describe as a carved Swiss wooden toy. This is made with three sides, each side repre.senting or symbolizing, if you like, the scene played. The Greeks called this a periaktos. It is on rollers and easily turned. Side one is a cottage; side two, the great twisted roots of the Maple Tree and the head of an owl; and to side three the canvas of the circus tent is hung.

# My God! O let me call Thee mine!

My God! O let me call Thee mine! Weak wretched sinner though I be, My trembling soul would fain be Thine, My feeble faith still clings to Thee, My feeble faith still clings to Thee. Not only for the past I grieve, The future fills me with dismay; Unless Thou hasten to relieve, I know my heart will fall away, I know my heart will fall away.
I cannot say my faith is strong, I dare not hope my love is great; But strength and love to Thee belong, O, do not leave me desolate! O, do not leave me desolate!
I know I owe my all to Thee, O, take this heart I cannot give. Do Thou my Strength my Saviour be; And make me to Thy glory live! And make me to Thy glory live!

JEHOVAH our righteousness by William Cowper
    My God! how perfect are thy ways!
    But mine polluted are;
    Sin twines itself about my praise,
    And slides into my prayer.
    When I would speak what thou hast done
    To save me from my sin;
    I cannot make thy mercies known
    But self-applause creeps in.
    Divine desire, that holy flame
    Thy grace creates in me;
    Alas! impatience is its name,
    When it returns to thee.
    This heart, a fountain of vile thoughts,
    How does it overflow?
    While self upon the surface floats
    Still bubbling from below.
    Let others in the gaudy dress
    Of fancied merit shine;
    The LORD shall be my righteousness
    The LORD for ever mine.

Will ye go to the ewe bughts, Marion, and wear in the sheep wi’ me? The sun shines sweet, my Marion, but nae half so sweet as thee. O Marion’s a bonnie lass,

There’s goud in your garters, Marion, and silk on your white hause bane; Fu’ fain wad I kiss my Marion, at e’en when I come hame. I’ve nine milk ewes, my Marion, a cow and a brawny quey: I’ll gi’e them a’ to Marion, just on her bridal day, And ye’se get a greensey apron’ and waistcoat of london brown, And vow but ye will be vap’ring, when’er ye gang to the town. I’m young and stout, my Marion, nane dances like me on the green; And gin ye forsake me, Marion, I’ll e’en draw up wi’ Jean.

## The Warblers of North America
### Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla)

Length, nearly 5½ inches. To be distinguished from other warblers by its coloration and its motions. (See below.)
Range: Breeds from central British Columbia and eastern Canada to Washington, Utah, Colorado, Oklahoma, and North Carolina; winters in the West lndies and from Mexico to Ecuador.
Its beauty of form and plumage and its graceful motions place this dainty bird at the head of our list of wood warblers—a place of distinction indeed. The bird appears to be the incarnation of animated motion and fairly dances its way through the forest. Spanish imagination has coined a suggestive and fitting name for the redstart, candelita, the little “torch-bearer.” The full appropriateness of the name appears as the graceful creature flits through the greenery, displaying the salmon-colored body and the bright wing and tail patches. The redstart is not unknown in some parts of the West, but it is essentially a bird of the Eastern States, where it is a common inhabitant of open woodland districts. While it builds a rather neat and compact structure of strips of bark, plant fibers, and the like, placing it in a sapling not far from the ground, the nest is not the thing of beauty one might be led to expect from such a fairy-like creature. Ornamental as the redstart is, it possesses other claims on our gratitude, for it is a most active and untiring hunter of insects, such as spittle insects, tree-hoppers, and leaf-hoppers, and both orchard and forest trees are benefited by the unceasing warfare it wages.

# National Geographic Magazine/Volume 31/Number 4/Friends of Our Forests/Worm-eating Warbler

See also ... Main article • Index to the Warblers of North America • List of illustrations

## The Warblers of North America
### Worm-eating Warbler (Helmitheros vermivorus)

Range: Breeds mainly in the Carolinian Zone from southern Iowa, northern Illinois, eastern and western Pennsylvania, and the Hudson and Connecticut River valleys south to southern Missouri, Tennessee, Virginia, and mountains of South Carolina; winters from Chiapas to Panama, in Cuba and the Bahamas.
He who would make the acquaintance of the worm-eating warbler must seek it in its own chosen home, far from which it never strays. It is a bird of shaded hillside and dark thickets along watercourses. Though nimble in its movements and an active insect hunter, it is an unobtrusive little warbler, garbed in very modest colors, and is likely wholly, to escape the notice of the unobservant.
There seems to be an unusual degree of jealousy among the males, and a pair, the hunting and the hunted, are often seen pursuing a rapid, zigzag flight through trees and bushes. I imagine that in such cases the pursuing male, whose angry notes show how much in earnest he is, is asserting the right of domain over his own hunting grounds, and driving from his preserves an intruder.
Like several of our terrestrial warblers, the worm-eater has caught the trick of walking, perhaps borrowing it from his thrush neighbors, and he rarely or never hops. In his case the term “terrestrial” must be modified by the statement that to a certain extent he is a connecting link between the arboreal members of the family, as the black-throated green and Tennessee, which descend to the ground only casually, and such species as the Connecticut and the Swainson, which seek their food chiefly on the ground. Of the musical ability of the worm-eating warbler little is to be said save that his song is so very feeble that one must listen carefully to hear it at all, and that it much resembles that of our familiar “chippy” when heard a long distance off. This warbler nests on the ground, often on a hillside or in a shallow depression, and the pairs seem so much attached to their old home that they may confidently be looked for in the same place year after year.

# National Geographic Magazine/Volume 31/Number 4/Friends of Our Forests/Yellow-breasted Chat

See also ... Main article • Index to the Warblers of North America • List of illustrations

## The Warblers of North America
### Yellow-breasted Chat (Icteria virens and subspecies)

Length, about 7½ inches. Its size, olive-green upper parts, and bright yellow throat, breast, and upper belly distinguish this bird at a glance.
Range: Breeds from British Columbia, Montana, Wisconsin, Ontario, and southern New England south to the Gulf States and Mexico; winters from Mexico to Costa Rica.
The chat is one of our largest and most notable warblers. It is a frequenter of brushy thickets and swampy new growth, and, while not averse to showing itself, relies more upon its voice to announce its presence than upon its green and yellow plumage. Not infrequently the chat sings during the night. The song, for song we must call it, is an odd jumble of chucks and whistles, which is likely to bring to mind the quip current in the West, “Don't shoot the musician; he is doing his best.” In this same charitable spirit we must accept the song of the chat at the bird's own valuation, which, we may be sure, is not low. Its nest is a rather bulky structure of grasses, leaves, and strips of bark, and is often so conspicuously placed in a low bush as to cause one to wonder how it ever escapes the notice of marauders fond of birds' eggs and nestlings.
The chat does no harm to agricultural interests, but, on the contrary, like most of the warbler family, lives largely on insects, and among them are many weevils, including the alfalfa weevil and the boll weevil so destructive to cotton.

See also ... Main article • Index to the Warblers of North America • List of illustrations

## The Warblers of North America
### Wilson's Warbler (Wilsonia pusilla pusilla)

Range: Breeds in Boreal Zones from tree limit in northwestern and central Mackenzie, central Keewatin, central Ungava, and Newfoundland south to southern Saskatchewan, northern Minnesota, central Ontario, New Hampshire, Maine, and Nova Scotia; winters in eastern Central America from Guatemala to Costa Rica.
This tiny warbler ventures farther north than many bigger and apparently, hardier species, and Nelson found it in Alaska “one of the commonest of the bush-frequenting species, … extending its breeding range to the shores of the Arctic Ocean wherever it finds shelter.” Cooke also found it in Colorado breeding from 6,000 to 12,000 feet elevation.
The black-cap is a nervous, energetic, little fellow, now essaying the rôle of flycatcher, now hunting for insects among the foliage, while ever and anon it jerks its tail up and down as though constant motion were the chief end of existence. It has a short, bubbling, warbling song which has been likened to the songs of several other species, but which possesses a tone and quality all the bird's own. Its nest is built on the ground, is composed chiefly of grasses, and the eggs do not differ in essential respects from those of other warblers.
It is noteworthy that the West Coast form of the black-cap chryseola breeds as far south as Los Angeles, and that its nest instead of being built on the ground is placed in the crotch of a limb or in a bunch of weeds or nettles.

## The Warblers of North America
### Yellow Warbler (Dendroica æstiva and races)

Length, little more than 5 inches. Mostly yellow, breast and belly streaked with reddish brown.
Range: North America, breeding generally throughout its range south to California, New Mexico, Missouri, and northern South Carolina; winters in Central and South America.
The “yellow bird,” or wild canary, as it is sometimes called, is one of the commonest of the warbler tribe and ranges over a vast extent of territory, being found here and there from ocean to ocean. Unlike some of its relatives, it prefers open thickets, especially of willows, to thick woodland, and often builds its pretty nest by the roadside or in garden shrubbery. Though not an expert musician, the yellow warbler sings early and often, and in zeal makes up what it lacks in quality of voice. Because its nest is easily found by the initiated, this warbler is often victimized by the infamous cowbird, and is forced to bring up one, or even two, young cowbirds in place of its own rightful progeny. It is pleasant to be able to record the fact that sometimes the clever warbler knows enough—how it knows it is another matter—to evade the unwelcome responsibilities thus thrust upon it, and builds a platform over the alien egg, and then continues its domestic affairs as originally planned. Indeed, cases are on record when two cowbirds' eggs have been found in a nest, each covered up by a separate layer of nest material.
