# Old Mother Hubbard

"Old Mother Hubbard" is an English-language nursery rhyme. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 19334.
The exact origin of the rhyme is disputed. The first three verses were already considered "ancient" in the late 18th century. In 1805, Sarah Catherine Martin released The Comic Adventures of Old Mother Hubbard and Her Dog, an expanded version of the rhyme with fourteen verses, which was extremely popular and became the definitive version of the rhyme.

### Original rhyme (i.e. first verse or verses only)

* "Old Mother Hubbard" in The Nursery Rhymes of Mother Goose by Arthur Rackham (St. Nicholas, 1914)
* "Old Mother Hubbard" in The Real Mother Goose by Blanche Fisher Wright (1916)

Perez v. Brownell, 356 U.S. 44 (1958), was a United States Supreme Court decision which affirmed Congress's right to revoke United States citizenship as a result of a citizen's voluntary performance of specified actions, even in the absence of any intent or desire on the person's part to lose his or her citizenship. Specifically, the Supreme Court upheld an act of Congress which provided for revocation of citizenship as a consequence of voting in a foreign election.

Memorandum of Mr. Justice WHITTAKER.
Though I agree with the major premise of the majority's opinion-that Congress may expatriate a citizen for an act which it may reasonably find to be fraught with danger of embroiling our Government in an international dispute or of embarrassing it in the conduct of foreign affairs-I cannot agree with the result reached, for it seems plain to me that § 401(e) is too broadly written to be sustained upon that ground. That section, so far as here pertinent, expatriates an American citizen simply for 'voting in a political election in a foreign state.' Voting in a political election in a particular foreign state may be open to aliens under the law of that state, as it was in presidential elections in the United States until 1928 as the dissenting opinion of The Chief Justice observes. Where that is so-and this record fails to show that petitioner's act of voting in a political election in Mexico in 1946 was not entirely lawful under the law of that state such legalized voting by an American citizen cannot reasonably be said to be fraught with danger of embroiling our Government in an international dispute or of embarrassing it in the conduct of foreign affairs, nor, I believe, can such an act-entirely legal under the law of the foreign state-be reasonably said to constitute an abandonment or any division or dilution of allegiance to the United States. Since these are my convictions, I dissent from the majority's opinion and join in so much of the dissenting opinion of The Chief Justice as expresses the view that the act of a citizen of the United States in voting in a foreign political election which is legally open to aliens under the law of that state cannot reasonably be said to constitute abandonment or any division or dilution of allegiance to the United States.
This leaves open the question presented respecting the constitutionality of § 401(j), but inasmuch as the majority have found it unnecessary to adjudicate the constitutionality of that section in this case, it would be wholly fruitless for me now to reach a conclusion on that question, and I neither express nor imply any views upon it. Limiting myself to the issue decided by the majority, I dissent.

In doing so, however, the court did not overturn the California Alien Land Laws as unconstitutional. Warning: template has been deprecated.

OXLEY verʃus COWPERTHWAITE, Sheriff.
T
Sergeant, for the Plaintiff, obferved, that he Defendant in replevin could not controul the Sheriff in accepting or rejecting the fureties, and, therefore, he ought not, in juftice, to be affected by their eventual infolvency ; and, he infifted, that, in law the Sheriff takes them at his peril, and is anfwerable for their proving fufficient. Gilb. on Diʃt. 67. 176. 1 Bac. Abr. 207.
Levy, for the Defendant, ftated the hiftory, nature, and duties of the Sheriff's office from Robinʃon's Charles the ƒiƒth. 1 Vol. p. 213. ​
1788.
and contended, that is a Sheriff difcharged his duty bona ƒide, and with reafonable diligence, he was not refponfible for confequences which no human forefight could penetrate or prevent.
SHIPPEN, Preʃident.–The only point for decifion is, whether the Sheriff is refponfible for the fufficiency of the fureties at the time of taking the bond ; or at the end of the fuit, when the landlord has eftablifhed his right to the rent for which the goods were diftrained?
The cafe of a bail-bond differs,I think, in one repfect, at leaft, from a replevin bond ; for the fufficiency of the former may fpeedily be enquired into, but the latter muft wait the event of the replevin, which may be fufpended for feveral years, until, perhaps, by the viviffitudes of trade and fortune, the fureties have become infolvent. This, therefore, is certainly a hard part of the Sherriff's duty. But there is likewife, a hardfhip in the cafe of the landlord ; for, by the replevin he is divefted of the immediate fecurity of this tenant's goods, and yet has no right to interfere in the choice of the fureties, that undertake to fee them returned when he has eftablifhed his demand.
From this view, then, it certainly feems reafonable, that he, who is exclufively authorized to take and judge of the fecurity, fhould rather be affected by its eventual infufficiency, than he who has no right to queftion its validity. The authorities, indeed, are pofitive, that, it the fureties do not prove ʃuƒƒicient, the Sheriff is liable ; and, although the cafe muft frequently have happened, no contrary decifio can be produced ; for in Murdock verfus Will (fee ant. 341) and Welʃh verfus Procter, both lately tried here, the Council put the cafes upon the point of infufficiency of the fureties at the time of taking them ; fo that the prefent point never came in queftion.
That the policy of the law in this refpect bears hard upon the Sheriff, may be a reafon with the Legiflature to make fome new provifion for an enquiry into the fufficiency of the bail in an earlier ftage of the caufe; but cannot be a juftification for our deciding, at this time, contrary to an eftablifhed principle.
the court are, therefore, clearly of opinion, that the verdict, on the queftion of law, ought to be in favor of the Plaintiff.
And, accordingly, the Jury gave the Plaintiff damages to the value of the goods at the time they were diftrained.
