Prout v. Roby
APPEAL from the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia; in which court John Roby, asserting himself to be grandson and heir-at-law of a certain Jane Mallion, filed, A.D. 1865, a bill against Robert Prout (the now appellant), in order to have an account taken of rents received by him, the said Robert, from a lot on Capitol Hill, Washington, D. C., leased A.D. 1820, on a small ground-rent, by William Prout, ancestor of him, the said Robert, to one Porter 'in trust for the said Jane Mallion, her heirs and assigns,' with a right on the part of her and them to have, at any time, a conveyance in fee simple on payment of the principal of the rent; and on which lot (the said Jane dying A.D. 1852 intestate and leaving no personal representative) the said Robert Prout, without any such demand on the premises, of arrears of rent, as gave him a right of re-entry, had assumed to re-enter as for a common-law forfeiture; and the bill praying, moreover, in the event of certain findings, a conveyance in fee simple to him, the said John Roby, complainant.
Mr. Bradley, for the appellant; Mr. Totten, contra.
Mr. Justice SWAYNE stated the facts and delivered the opinion of the court.

# Prout against Creswell.

The English reports, Volume CLXI, 15
Arches Court, Easter Term, April 22nd, 1752. – A churchwarden cannot prevent a minister appointed under a sequestration from officiating in the church. — Augmented curacies stand on the same footing with respect to sequestrations as presentative livings.
(Appeal from Exeter.)
The church of Fresmere, in the diocese of Exeter, is an augmented impropriate cure, which, being vacant, the Bishop granted a sequestration to Edmund Herring, clerk, to serve the cure and receive the profits of the benefice: this sequestration was granted on the 6th of June, 1751. On the 9th of June, 1751, Mr. Herring read the sequestration to Prout, the churchwarden of the parish, and demanded admittance into the church to officiate; Prout refused him, and admitted George Thompson, clerk, to officiate there by his authority as churchwarden, without licence. On the 6th of September, 1751, a citation ex mero officio issued against Prout, to answer to articles for hindering the minister appointed by sequestration from officiating. On the 11th of October, 1751, Creswell was appointed promoter; articles were given in and admitted; Prout's proctor prayed security, but the Court did not decree it.
Dr. Jenner, for Prout, insisted that the principal grounds of appeal, were the want of security, and the articles not being agreeable to the citation, the citation being ex mero officio, and the articles being at the promotion of Creswell. But the præsertim of the appeal was from admitting the articles, and every thing following therefrom, and from all other grievances, without mentioning either the want of securities, or the diversities between the citation and the articles.
Therefore those objections were overruled.
Dr. Jenner then insisted that the bishop may compel the impropriator to nominate a curate, but cannot, as in this case, appoint a sequestrator. Clarke's Praxis, tit. 189. Sequestration shall be granted to the churchwarden to receive the profits and find a clerk; the sequestrator cannot, as such, maintain an action for tithes, but the churchwarden may; a licence to preach is different from a sequestration; it does not appear that Herring had a licence.
Judgment — Sir George Lee.
I was of opinion that the bishop had power to grant sequestration; for this being an augmented curacy, was by stat. 1 Geo. 1, c. 10, [Queen Anne's Bounty Act 1714] put in many respects upon the same footing with presentative livings. (a)2
I therefore pronounced against the appeal, and remitted the cause.
(a)2 Undoubtedly this is so, but another point often lost sight of is that the cure of souls is, by the fifth section of the same statute, specially reserved to the incumbent of the mother church.

REJECTED OFFERINGS.
My dear Mr. Punch,—In these first few days after Christmas many of your readers are no doubt faced, as we have been, with a problem which is quite new to them. I hope they took the precaution—as we did—to write and explain to all likely givers (1) that this was no year for the exchange of Christmas gifts among grown-up people who have no need for them; (2) that it was the opinion of all right thinking persons that no such gifts should be sent, (3) that consequently they were sending none and hoped to receive none.
That is all right as far as it goes, but the problem remains of what is to be done with those people who can't be stopped? We have had several painful instances of this sort. The stuff has arrived, the usual sort of non-war stuff, some of which must have cost quite a lot of money, of which it may with truth be said, "your King and Country need you." How were these things to be dealt with, since we felt that we could not keep them?
We found that no general treatment could be applied; we have had to sort them out into groups, before deflecting them into the proper courses.
Books to hospitals. In this case the matron is asked to acknowledge them direct to the original giver.
Smoking Accessories (such as the newest pipe-filler and match-striker and cigarette-case-opener and pouch​unfolder and cigar-holder-grip), to the nearest male Belgian; and
All other portable presents to the nearest female Belgian. (These two classes may be neatly acknowledged in the columns of the Courier Belge.)
All larger presents (of the motor-car, pianola and sewing machine variety) to be sold by auction for the National Relief Fund. Marked catalogue of the sale to be sent to the giver in proof of their safe arrival. Yours, etc.,
An Ordinary Englishman.

# Presidential Radio Address - 8 June 2002

Weekly radio address delivered on June 8, 2002.
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. Nearly nine months have passed since September the 11th, and America is leading the world in a titanic struggle against terror. The first and best way to secure America's homeland is to attack the enemy where he hides and plans, and we are doing just that.
We have also concluded that our government must be reorganized to deal most effectively with the new threats of the 21st century. So I have asked the Congress to join me in creating a single, permanent Cabinet-level Department of Homeland Security, with an overriding and urgent mission: securing the American homeland, and protecting the American people.
The Department of Homeland Security will unite essential agencies that must work more closely together, among them the Coast Guard and the Border Patrol, the Customs Service, Immigration officials, the Transportation Security Administration, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Employees of this new agency will come to work every morning knowing that their most important job is to protect their fellow citizens.
The Department of Homeland Security will be charged with four primary tasks. This new agency will control our borders and prevent terrorists and explosives from entering our country. It will work with state and local authorities to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies. It will bring together our best scientists to develop technologies that detect biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons, and to discover the drugs and treatments to best protect our citizens. And this new department will review intelligence and law enforcement information from all agencies of government, and produce a single daily picture of threats against our homeland. Analysts will be responsible for imagining the worst, and planning to counter it.
What I am proposing is the most extensive reorganization of the federal government since the 1940s. During his presidency, Harry Truman recognized that our nation's fragmented defenses had to be reorganized to win the Cold War. He proposed uniting our military forces under a single Department of Defense, and creating the National Security Council to bring together defense, intelligence, and diplomacy. President Truman's reforms are still helping us to fight terror abroad, and now we need similar dramatic reforms to secure our people at home.
Only the United States Congress can create a new department of government, so I'm asking for your help in encouraging your representatives to support my plan. We face an urgent need, and we must move quickly, this year, before the end of the congressional session.
All in our government have learned a great deal since September the 11th, and we must act on every lesson. We are stronger and better prepared today than we were on that terrible morning. And with your help, and the support of the Congress, we will be stronger still.
Thank you for listening.

* Dissenting Opinion Harlan
United States Supreme Court
369 U.S. 111
Public Affairs Associates, Inc. v. Rickover
Argued: Nov. 6 and 7, 1961. --- Decided: March 5, 1962
Mr. Justice HARLAN, dissenting.
The basic issue which brought these cases here was whether Admiral Rickover's speeches were copyrightable in light of the following provision of the Copyright Act: 'No copyright shall subsist in * * * any publication of the United States Government.' (17 U.S.C. § 8, 17 U.S.C.A. § 8.) As I see it, decision of that issue turns not merely on whether such speeches were made by the Admiral in the 'line of duty,' but also, and in my view more fundamentally, on whether such speeches were in any event 'publication(s) of the United States Government.' In my opinion the record is sufficient to require adjudication on both aspects of that issue, and on this phase of the controversy I agree with the result reached by the Court of Appeals. I also agree with its determination as to the adequacy of the copyright notice affixed to speeches delivered after December 1, 1958.
However, I consider the record inadequate to justify adjudication as to whether Admiral Rickover's right to copyright was lost with respect to speeches delivered before December 1, 1958, by reason of their alleged entry into 'the public domain.' As to that issue I would vacate the judgment of the Court of Appeals and remand the case to the District Court for further proceedings. In all other respects I would affirm the judgment below.

EXTRACT FROM THE CATALOGUE OF THE CRUIKSHANK EXHIBITION.
"Having been engaged by Mr. Prowett, the publisher, to give the various scenes represented in the street performances of 'Punch and Judy,' I obtained the address of the Proprietor and Performer of that popular Exhibition. He was an elderly Italian, of the name of Piccini, whom I remembered from boyhood, and he lived at a low public-house, the sign of 'The King's Arms,' in the 'Coalyard,' 'Drury Lane.' Having made arrangements for a 'Morning Performance,' one of the window-frames on the first floor of the public-house was taken out, and the stand or Punch's Theatre was hauled into the 'Club-room.' Mr. Payne Collier (who was to write the description), the publisher, and myself, formed the audience; and as the performance went on, I stopped it at the most interesting parts to sketch the Figures, whilst Mr. Collier noted down the dialogue; and thus the whole is a faithful copy and description of the various scenes represented by this Italian, whose performance of 'Punch' was far superior in every respect to anything of the sort to be seen at the present day. The figure whose neck he used to stretch to such a great height, was a sort of interlude. Piccini made the figure take off his hat with one hand—which he defied all other puppet-show performers to do. Piccini announced the approach of Punch by sound of trumpet.

# Punch/Volume 79/Issue 14/Elegy to Jacques Offenbach

an elegy to the French composer Jacques Offenbach, published on October 16, 1880, in the British humor magazine Punch.
Jacques Offenbach.
Lightly lie the turf upon him! Muse of Music be possessed,
He of melody was master, let us sing him to his rest.
Friend of long ago remembered! you were girl and I was boy, When he took our hearts to Paris, and he sung to us of Troy,
* Tell him—Dites Lui, remember—
* we recall the storm and stress
* Of the nights Napoleonic, and
* the jewelled Grande Duchesse
* We behold as in a vista, art su-
* preme and fancy free
* Struck to song by golden
* Schneider and to wit by
* quaint Dupuis!
* Classic days of merry music on
* the memory remain.
* With Eurydice, and Orpheus,
* with John Styx, and Belle Hélène.
* Gods in high Olympus revelled
* on the stage in France,
* When King Jove let loose his
* thunder, and Queen Juno led the dance.
* Magic charm was yours, my
* master, for we tripped at your
* command.
* Through the dreamy valse, the
* galop, and the maddened sara-
* band.
Evöe! cried jovial Bacchus, little Cupid loosed his bow, In the Paris of the empire, in the days of long ago.
Ah! my merry Gipsy maiden, Périchole with Spanish eyes, Sing your letter song; then take us to the tender "Bridge of Sighs," Where romance was set to music; ah! but sweeter let it flow Chanson matchless of De Musset! song of young Fortunio! With a répertoire exhaustless, classic fable, follym fun, Cruel Thanatos gave signal, and the overture was done— Still he won in competition, but his equal where and when? For his life's success was Paris—yes, La Vie Parisienne!
Drape the orchestra in mourning, wreathe the violin and bow, Leave the bâton where he placed it—'tis the final beat, you know; Gather up the parts, 'tis over, come, dismiss the band you can, Death is now the Tambour Major, and the rolls his rataplan. Stop the dancing for a moment, take your partner to the stairs, And together, in a dreamland, hear his operatic airs. Mirth has ended! and a spirit full of melody has fled To a land of sweeter music—merry Offenbach is dead!
