United States Supreme Court
147 U.S. 370
Walter v. Northeastern Railroad Company
Statement by Mr. Justice BROWN:
This was a bill in equity filed by the Northeastern Railroad Company of South Carolina against the treasurer and sheriff of Charleston, Berkeley, Williamsburg, and Florence counties, through which the plaintiff's road passes, to enjoin them from issuing executions against or seizing the property of the plaintiff, for the purpose of collecting a tax based upon an assessment alleged to be unconstitutional and void.
The substance of the bill was that the constitution of the state provided for a uniform and equal rate of assessment and taxation; that real estate is assessed for tax at on once in five years at a uniform rate of from 50 to 60 per cent. of its actual value; that personal property is assessed every year at the same rate, or less; that this rate has become a uniform rule, and was accepted and acted upon by the assessing officers and boards of the state; that plaintiff returned its property at a valuation of from 60 to 65 per cent. of its actual value; and that the state board of equalization for railroads arbitrarily assessed the property of this company at a much higher rate, although prior to the year 1891 it had accepted and acted upon a uniform rule of assessment; but that at its meeting in 1891 it abandoned the rule theretofore accepted, and assessed railroad property at a rate exceeding its actual value, and in some cases doubled and trebled the previous rate, with intent to cast upon it a greater proportion of taxation, although no change was made in the assessment of other real and personal property; that the plaintiff, in common with the other railroads of the state, tendered in payment of its taxes the amount due under the levy estimated upon the value of its property as theretofore assessed, under the rule prevailing in that state, and set forth in its sworn return, and brought this bill to enjoin the taking possession of or selling its property under a tax execution to collect the excess.
Defendants demurred to this bill upon the grounds (1) that the court had no jurisdiction, by reason of the insufficient amount in controversy; (2) that the plaintiff had a complete and adequate remedy at law; (3) for want of equity. The case was heard upon this demurrer, and a decree was rendered overruling the demurrer, and enjoining the collection of the taxes. See Railroad Co. v. Blake, 49 Fed. Rep. 904. Defendants appealed to this court under the fifth section of the court of appeals act of 1891.
Samuel Lord and Ira B. Jones. for appellants.
W. Hugh Fitz-Simons and Henry A. M. Smith, for appellee.
Mr. Justice BROWN, after stating the facts in the foregoing language, delivered the opinion of the court.

Sweet Home.
‘Mid pleaures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there s no place like home; A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there, Which seek through the world is ne'er met with elsewhere
Home, Home, sweet sweet home There s no place like home, there's no ⟨place⟩ like home.
​⟨The⟩ poor sailor boy, as oer billows he roam, ⟨Oft⟩ sighs for the ⟨cot⟩ he has left far at Home, ⟨And⟩ the sweet village bells so pleasant and gay, ⟨And⟩ the lass that he loves who is far, far away
⟨In⟩ exile from Homes splendour dazzles in vain, ⟨O,⟩ give me my lovely thatched cottage again, ⟨The⟩ birds singing ⟨gaily⟩ that came at my call, ⟨Give⟩ me them with the peace of mind dearer than all.

Billy O’ Rourke.
I greased my brogues and cut my stick, at the la ter end of May sir, And off for Dublin I set out. to sail upon the sea sir: Then next to England I would go; to reap the hay and corn sir, To leavefold Ireland far behind. the place where I was born sir. With my shillelah coh, and my heart so true. Oh Billy O’ Rourke’s the bay sir.
I paid the captain six thirteens, to carry me over to Margate Before we got half over the waves, it blew at o hell of a hard ⟨rate⟩, The great big stick that grew cut of the ship began to roar and whistle And the sailors all both great and small, cries, Pat you will go to the devil, ⟨with⟩ my, &c
Some fell upon their bended knees, the ladies fell a fainting But fell to my bread and cheese, for I always mind the main thing. Says the sailors to the bottom you’ll go, says I — I dont card a farthing. For I paid my passage to Pargate you know, and be dommed but I’ll stick an my bargain. with my &c.
​The wind did whistle some to sleep, till we got to the place of landing, And these that were the most afraid, were out the ladiss handing, Says I your clothes feel mighty droll, you surely must have riches, And for your heart it dont lie in the right part, it surely must lie in your breeches. with my &c,
Then for London I set out, and going along ths road sir, I met an honest gentleman who proved to be a rouge sir. He cocked a pistol to my head, close to my very mouth sir. Saying—Paddy my boy I d have you be smart, in handing out your money, sir with my &c.
Oh have you patience honest gentleman, and hear me speak a word sir, for two-pence is all the money I've got to carry me many a mile sir He said no longer he would wait, his patience I had fairly tired, His pan it flashed his brains I smashed. with my shillelah that never missed fire. with my &c.

United States Supreme Court
402 U.S. 62
United States v. Vuitch
Argued: Jan. 12, 1971. --- Decided: April 21, 1971
Mr. Justice WHITE, concurring.
I join the Court's opinion and judgment. As to the facial vagueness argument, I have these few additional words. This case comes to us unilluminated by facts or record. The District Court's holding that the District of Columbia statute is unconstitutionally vague on its face because it proscribes all abortions except those necessary for the preservation of the mother's life or health was a judgment that the average person could not understand which abortions were permitted and which were prohibited. But surely the statute puts everyone on adequate notice that the health of the mother, whatever that phrase means, is the governing standard. It should also be absolutely clear that a doctor is not free to perform an abortion on request without considering whether the patient's health requires it. No one of average intelligence could believe that under this statute abortions not dictated by health considerations are legal. Thus even if the 'health' standard were unconstitutionally vague, which I agree is not the case, the statute is not void on its face since it reaches a class of cases in which the meaning of 'health' is irrelevant and no possible vagueness problem could arise. We do not, of course, know whether this is one of those cases. Until we do facial vagueness claims must fail. Cf. United States v. National Dairy Corp., 372 U.S. 29, 83 S.Ct. 594, 9 L.Ed.2d 561 (1963).
Mr. Justice DOUGLAS, dissenting in part.

SCENE XI.
To them enter Butler from a second table.
BUTLER.
Field Marshal, I have understood you perfectly. Good luck be to the scheme; and as to me, [With an air of mystery) You may depend upon me.
ILLO (with vivacity)
BUTLER.
You understand me? My fidelity
The Duke may put to any proof—I'm with him! Tell him so! I'm the Emperor's officer, As long as 'tis his pleasure to remain The Emperor's general! and Friedland's servant, As soon as it shall please him to become His own lord.
TERTSKY.
No stern economist, no Ferdinand, Is he to whom you plight your services.
BUTLER (with a haughty look)
To sale, Count Tertsky! Half a year ago I would not have advis'd you to have made me An overture to that, to which I now Offer myself of my own free accord.— But that is past! and to the Duke, Field Marshal, I bring myself together with my regiment. And mark you, 'tis my humour to believe, The example which I give will not remain Without an influence.
ILLO.
That the whole army looks to Colonel Butler, As to a light that moves before them?
BUTLER.
Then I repent me not of that fidelity Which for the length of forty years I held, If in my sixtieth year my old good name Can purchase for me a revenge so full.
Start not at what I say, sir Generals! My real motives—they concern not you. And you yourselves, I trust, could not expect That this your game had crook'd my judgment—or That fickleness, quick blood, or such like cause, Has driven the old man from the track of honour, Which he so long had trodden.—Come, my friends! I'm not thereto determin'd with less firmness, Because I know and have look'd steadily At that on which I have determin'd.
ILLO.
And speak roundly, what are we to deem you?
BUTLER.
With all I have. Not only men, but money Will the Duke want.——Go, tell him, sirs! I've earn'd and laid up somewhat in his service, I lend it him; and is he my survivor, It has been already long ago bequeath'd him. He is my heir. For me, I stand alone Here in the world; nought know I of the feeling That bind the husband to a wife and children. My name dies with me, my existence ends.
ILLO.
Like your's weighs tons of gold down, weighs down millions!
BUTLER.
To Prague—and with a master, whom I buried.
From lowest stable duty I climb'd up, Such was the fate of war, to this high rank, The plaything of a whimsical good fortune. And Wallenstein too is a child of luck, I love a fortune that is like my own.
ILLO.
BUTLER.
To the determin'd, an auspicious moment. The Prince of Weimar arms, upon the Main To found a mighty dukedom. He of Halberstadt, That Mansfeld, wanted but a longer life To have mark'd out with his good sword a lordship That should reward his courage. Who of these Equals our Friedland? There is nothing, nothing So high, but he may set the ladder to it!
TERTSKY.
BUTLER.
I'll be your warrant for the Scotchman Lesly. Come! to the company!
TERTSKY.
Let the best wines come up. Ho! cheerly, boy! Luck comes to-day, so give her hearty welcome. [Exeunt, each to his table.

SCENE VIII.
A large Saloon lighted up with festal Splendour; in the Midst of it, and in the Centre of the Stage, a Table richly set out, at which eight Generals are sitting, among whom are Octavio Piccolomini, Tertsky, and Maradas. Right and left of this, but further back, two other Tables, at each of which six Persons are placed. The middle Door, which is standing open, gives to the Prospect a fourth Table, with the same Number of Persons. More forward stands the Sideboard. The whole Front of the Stage is kept open for the Pages and Servants in waiting. All is in Motion. The Band of Music belonging to Tertsky's Regiment march across the Stage, and draw up around the Tables. Before they are quite off from the Front of the Stage, Max. Piccolomini appears, Tertsky advances towards him with a Paper, Isolani comes up to meet him with a Beaker or Service-cup.
Tertsky, Isolani, Max. Piccolomini.
ISOLANI.
Off, to thy place—quick! Tertzky here has given
The mother's holiday wine up to free booty.
Here it goes on as at the Heideberg castle.
Already hast thou lost the best. They're giving At yonder table ducal crowns in shares; There's Sternberg's lands and chattels are put up, With Eggenberg's, Stawata's, Lichtenstein's, And all the great Bohemian feodalities. Be nimble, lad! and something may turn up For thee,—who knows? Off—to thy place! quick! march!
TIEFENBACH and GOETZ (call out from the second and third tables.)
TERTSKY.
This oath here, whether as 'tis here set forth, The wording satisfies you. They've all read it, Each in his turn, and each one will subscribe His individual signature.
MAX.(reads)
ISOLANI.
And being interpreted, pray what may't mean?
TERTSKY.
MAX.
graciously consented to remain still with the army, and not to part from us without our approbation thereof, so we, collectively and each in particular, in the stead of an oath personally taken, do hereby oblige ourselves—likewise by him honorably and faithfully to hold, and in nowise whatsoever from him to part, and to be ready to shed for his interests the last drop of our blood, so far, namely, as our oath to the Emperor will permit it. (These last words are repeated by Isolani.) In testimony of which we subscribe our names."

"Since we're once for all Together and unanimous, why not," Says Montecuculi, "ay, why not onward? And make conditions with the Emperor There in his own Vienna?" Trust me, Count, Were it not for these said Piccolomini, We might have spar'd ourselves the cheat.
