# Dunlop v. Hepburn/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
By the decree of this court made in this cause at February term, 1816, the defendants were ordered 'to make up, state, and settle, before a commissioner or commissioners to be appointed by the circuit court of the district of Columbia for the county of Alexandria, an account of the rents and profits of the tract of land referred to in the proceedings, since the 27th day of March, 1809, and that they pay over the same to the complainants, John Dunlop & Co., or to their lawful agent or attorney.' The commissioners appointed by the circuit court to execute this part of the decree of this court made a report, in which they state, 'that it did not appear to them that the said William Hepburn and John Dundas, or the legal representatives of the said Dundas, ever received any rents or profits of the land from the 27th day of March, 1809, until the date of the report; but that the reasonable rents and profits of the said land in its untenantable situation from the said 27th day of March, 1809, to the 27th day of March, 1816, with due care would be equal to 2077 60 dollars.'
The cause coming on to be heard in the court below on this report, and that court being of opinion that under the decree of this court, the defendants were only to be accountable for the rents and profits actually received, it was decreed that the bill, so far as it seeks a recovery of rents and profits, should be dismissed, from which decree an appeal was prayed to this court.
I am instructed by the court to say, that the decree of the circuit is in strict conformity with the decree and mandate of this court, and is therefore to be affirmed.
Decree affirmed.

# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Gratius Faliscus

See also Grattius on Wikipedia; Grattius on Wikipedia, Gratius Faliscus in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
GRATIUS FALISCUS, a Roman poet, contemporary with Virgil and Ovid, and author of a poem on hunting (Cynf.yetica), of which somewhat more than 536 lines have been preserved. Of his personal history nothing is known ; but it has been doubtfully conjectured from his cognomen that he was a native of Falerii. The only reference to him to be met with in any writer of antiquity (Ovid, Pont., iv. 1G, 33) is of the most incidental kind, and his poem seems very early to have fallen into comparative oblivion. Our knowledge of it is derived chiefly from a manuscript of the 10th century, preserved at Vienna, but partly also from one of nearly the same age at Paris. It describes, some what after the manner of Xenophon, various kinds of game, the means to be employed for their pursuit and capture, the best breeds of horses and dogs ; and in doing so it seldom rises above the dull level of the driest technicality, although occasionally there are faint reminiscences of Virgil.
The cditio princcps of this author was published in Venice in 1534 ; his work was also included by Ulitius (1645-55) and Havcr- camp(1728)in their editions of Auctores Rci Venaticce, as well as by
and by Weber in the Corpus Poctarum Latinorum. The most recent editions are those of Stern (1832) and Haupt (1838). A rendering into English verse was published by Christopher Wase in 1654; there is also a German translation by Perlet (1826).

See also Gravelines on Wikipedia; Gravelines on Wikipedia, Gravelines in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
GRAVELINES (Flemish Gravelinghe, German Gravelingen), a fortified seaport town of France, in the department of Nord and arrondissement of Dunkirk, is situated near the mouth of the Aa, 11 miles S.W. of Dunkirk. The principal buildings are a church of the 16th century, the magazine, and the town hall. The harbour is only accessible at flood tide, but there is a considerable shipping trade in fish, apples, vegetables, and eggs. Shipbuilding is also carried on, and there are salt refineries, sail and linen manufactories, saw mills and meal mills. The fortifications were constructed anew by Vauban in the reign of Louis XIV. For its defence the land, to the distance of a mile all round, can be laid under water at pleasure. The population in 1876 was 4182.
Gravelines was formed in 1160 by Count Thierry of Flanders, was conquered by the English in 1383, and came into the possession of the duke of Burgundy in 1405. It is celebrated for the victory gained by the Spanish under Egmont over the French under Marshal de Thermes, 13th July 1558. It was taken by the duke of Orleans in 1644, retaken by Archduke Leopold in 1652, and again taken by the French under Vauban in 1658, after which it was confirmed to France by the treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659.
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Gravesend

See also Gravesend on Wikipedia; Gravesend on Wikipedia, Gravesend in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
GRAVESEND, a municipal and parliamentary borough, river-port, and market-town in the county of Kent, England, is situated on the right bank of the Thames opposite Tilbury Fort, 30 miles below London by the river, and 24 miles by rail. It extends about 2 miles along the river bank, occupying a slight acclivity which reaches its summit at Windmill Hill, whence extensive views are obtained of the river, with its windings and shipping. The older and lower part of the town is irregularly built, with narrow and inconvenient streets, but the upper and newer portion contains several handsome streets, squares, and terraces. Gravesend is the boundary of the port of London. It has three piers, the town pier, erected in 1836, and belonging to the corporation, the terrace pier, built about 1840, and a new pier and station lately erected by the London, Tilbury, and Southend Railway Company. The town is a favourite resort of the inhabitants of London, both for excursions and as a summer residence. The principal buildings are the town-hall, a neat and conspicuous Doric edifice erected in 1836; the parish church of Gravesend, erected on the site of an ancient building destroyed by fire in 1727; Milton parish church, in the Late Decorated style, erected in the time of Edward II.; the county courts, the clubhouse of the Royal Thames Yacht Club, the custom-house, the assembly-rooms, the workmen's hall, the free grammar school, the almshouses for aged persons, and the dispensary and infirmary. East of the town are the earthworks designed to assist Tilbury Fort in obstructing the passage of an enemy's force. They were originally constructed on Vauban's system in the reign of Charles II., and some years ago they were strengthened at the cost of nearly £150,000. Gravesend has some import trade in coal and timber, and fishing, especially of shrimps, is carried on extensively. The principal other industries are boat-building, ironfounding, brewing, and soap-boiling. Fruit and vegetables are largely grown in the neighbourhood for the London market. Since 1867 Gravesend has returned a member to parliament. The municipal borough includes the parishes of Gravesend and Milton. The population of the municipal borough in 1871 was 21,265, and of the parliamentary 27,493.
Gravesend occurs in Domesday Book under the name Gravesham. It was burnt by the French in 1377. In 1573 it obtained a charter of incorporation from Queen Elizabeth, who also renewed the right, first conferred by Richard II., of regulating the "Long Ferry" (or passage from London) and enacting a fee from the "barges, till-boats, light-horsemen (hobellers), and wherries" on the river.

From 1665 to 1759 it was held by Sweden, and in 1772 it came into the possession of Prussia. The fortress of Graudenz, which since 1873 has been used merely as a barracks and a military depot and prison, is situated on a steep eminence about 11/2 miles north of the town and outside its limits. It was completed by Frederick the Great in 1776, and has been rendered famous through its defence by Courbière against the French in 1807.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Nahant

NAHANT
LAST night the sea was an enchanted moan And a pale pathway that the moonlight made. All night it sorrowed in the dark alone, Groping with ghostly fingers, half afraid, Up the great rocks and sobbing back again, Weary of search, yet still unsatisfied. It seemed to have the voice of all dead men And all fair women who had ever died.
But now the sun has risen, and the spray Leaps into sudden light along the shore. Each little wave has caught a golden ray — As if the dawn had never come before. Beyond the cliffs brown fishing boats go by Under the reach of the wide laughing sky.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Phonograph — Tango

PHONOGRAPH — TANGO
OLD dances are simplified of their yearning,
bleached by Time.  Yet from one black disc we tasted again the bite of crude Spanish passion.
… He had got into her courtyard.
She was alone that night. Through the black night-rain, he sang to her window bars:
 Love me, love—ah,love me!  If you will not, I can follow  Into the highest of mountains;  And there, in the wooden cabin,  I will strangle you for your lover.
—That was but rustling of dripping plants in the dark. More tightly under his cloak, he clasped his guitar.
 Love, ah-h! love me, love me!  If you will do this, I can buy  A fringed silk scarf of yellow,  A high comb carved of tortoise;  Then we will dance in the Plaza.
She was alone that night. He had broken into her courtyard, Above the gurgling gutters
he heard—
surely— a door unchained?
The passage was black; but he risked it— death in the darkness— or her hot arms—(love—love me ah-h-h!)
"A good old tune," she murmured —and I found we were dancing.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Poppy Song

POPPY SONG
I
FOOTSTEPS soft as fall the rose's Petals on a dewy lawn, Shaken when the wind uncloses Golden gateways for the dawn;
Laughter light as is the swallows' Chatter in the evening sky. Wafted upward from the hollows Where the limpid waters lie;
Weeping faint as is the willow's By the margin of the lake, Trembling into tiny billows That the silent teardrops make;
Phantoms fitful and uncertain As the pearly autumn rain, Sweeping on in cloudy curtain Down the wide way of the plain.
II
Oh, unhappy now to waken When the dream had scarce begun! Out of gentle twilight taken Into realms of burning sun:
Oh, unhappy now to find me Lost 'neath heavens hot with noon; All that fairy land behind me; Poppy fields and rising moon!
Drawbridge and portcullis screeching, Bugles braying soon and late; Who are they that come beseeching, Calling at my castle gate?
Drive them hence, for they encumber Days and nights with waking pain; Tell them that I lie and slumber Under poppies, wet with rain.
Who art thou that bendest praying Over me with dasped palms; Dim through surging darkness, saying Words of prayer and murmured psalms?
Who art thou that kneelest weeping By the border of my bed? Cease thou, for I was but sleeping — Dreaming, only, and not dead!
III
Phantoms flitting and uncertain Sweeping round the endless plain; Autumn twilight's dusky curtain, Drowsy poppies, drenched with rain.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Salvation Army

SALVATION ARMY
A DRUM pounds out the hymn,
Loud with gaudy angels, tinsel cherubim,
To drown the fanfare of the street,
And with exultant lilting beat,
To mingle the endless rumble of carts,
The scrape of feet, the noise of marts
And dinning market stalls, where women shout
Their wares, and meat hangs out —
Grotesque, distorted by the gas flare's light —
Into one sacred rhythm for the Devil's spite.
A woman's thin, raucous voice
Carries the tune, bids men rejoice, Bathe in God's mercy, Draw near and learn salvation, see
With their own eyes the mystery.
Cymbals, at the hands of a tired girl,
Slim wisp amid the swirl
Of crowded streets, take up the tune,
Monotonously importune.
Faces are wan in the arc-light's livid glare;
A wind gust carries the band's flare
Of song, in noisy eddies echoing,
Round lonely black street-corners,
Till, with distance dimming,
It fades away, Among the silent, dark array
Of city houses where no soul stirs.
The crowd thins, the players are alone;
In their faith's raucous monotone, Loud with gaudy angels, tinsel cherubim,
A drum pounds out the hymn.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Night Piece

NIGHT PIECE
A SILVER web has the moon spun,
A silver web upon all the sky,
Where the frail stars quiver, every one
Like tangled gnats that hum and die.
The moon has tangled the dull night
In her silver skein and set alight
Each dew-damp branch with milky flame.
And huge the moon broods on the night.
My soul is caught in the web of the moon,
Like a shrilling gnat in a spider's web.
Importunate memories shrill in my ears
Like the gnats that die in the spider web.
Lovely as death, in the moon's shroud,
Were town streets, grey houses, dim,
Full of strange peace in the silent night.
As we walked our footsteps clattered loud.
We felt the night as a troubled song … Oh, the triumphing sense of life a-throb, Behind those walls, in those dark streets, Like the sound of a river, swift, unseen,
Flowing in darkness. Oh, the hoarse
Half-heard murmur swirling beneath The snowy beauty of moonlight. …
And that other night, When the river rippled with faint spears Of street lights vaguely reflected. Grey The evening, like an opal; low, A grey moon shrouded in sea fog: Air pregnant with spring; rasp of my steps Beside the lapping water; within The dark. Down the worn out years a sob Of broken loves; old pain Of dead farewells; and one face Fading into grey. …
A silver web has the moon spun, A silver web over all the sky. In her flooding glory, one by one, Like gnats in a web the stars die.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Qui Sub Luna Errant

QUI SUB LUNA ERRANT
IN a strange land they dwell, too far away From sunlight and the common mirth of men Ever to come within our casual ken. We see them not, but if by chance we stray Down cypress aisles when the wan summer day Draws to a thin and sickly close, we hear Murmur of mad speech by some watery weir Or languid laughter and faint sound of play.
They never see the dawn; like the pale moths That haunt lugubrious shadows of dim trees They celebrate their lunar mysteries At woodland shrines, where with green thyrsus rods And weak limbs wrapped in silken sensuous cloths They chant the names of their dead pagan gods.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Neith

LAZARUS
AT morn we passed a hall where song And dance had been and wine flowed free,  And where, 'mid wrecks of revelry, Had lain the feasters all night long.
They saw us through the mist of dawn,  And, turning, called us to their feast —  The sound of lutes and cymbals ceased — But one He fixed His gaze upon.
In whose wide eyes there seemed to be —  Behind the laughing, wine-flushed face  And tilted ivy-crown's gay grace — Faint glimpses of Eternity.
Then sad, the Master bowed His head,  And, through the rosy twilight, dim,  Walked up and softly spake to him: "Art thou not he that late was dead?"
The drinker raised his cup on high,  And murmured: "Priest of Nazareth,  I am he thou didst raise from death — Lo, thus I wait again to die!"
A CRUCIFIX
THIS was the cross of God on which men's eyes Dwelt with the love of dead divinity, As they who by the desolate orient sea In battle made their sainted sacrifice, Dreaming their boundless striving should devise A symbol whereby men might know that he Who wins his way on earth to victory, Thus in his consummated sorrow dies.
All things are sacred to that tender sight: Time's ancient altars whence strange incense curled Innocent to the unknown gods; the light Of love is thine; faith's banner is unfurled, Even where the farthest watchmen, through the night, Call on the cloud-wrapped ramparts of the world.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Out of the Littleness

OUT of the littleness that wraps my days, The oppressive mist of gray and common things, Sometimes my dream on its audacious wings, Dripping with golden fire, above the haze, Flashes and veers against the sudden blaze Of sunlight. There no other wings may gleam But only yours, companioning my dream In its strange flight up new and radiant ways.
And once, I thought, in a far solitude, The black waves moaned and broke unutterably On a stern cliff where hand in hand we stood. There were none near us when the dark had gone, — Only the clean wind of a sailless sea, And you and I alone in the great dawn.
# Eight Harvard Poets/Of Too Much Song

OF TOO MUCH SONG
SEDGES, have you sung too much,
Sedges gray along the shore?
Can this autumn tempest touch
 Answering chords in you no more?
Is the summer all forgot? —  Now the ice is dark and strong That has bound you to the spot —  Did you die of too much song?
Something in me is a harp
 Played by every wanton breeze.
Moaning soft and piping sharp
 Are its wondrous melodies.
Is the playing over-fast
 Though the answer now is strong?
Like the sedges at the last
 Will it die of too much song?
# Eight Harvard Poets/On a Street Corner

ON A STREET CORNER
BUT all the time you spoke I did not hear The words you said. I only heard a far Faint sound of summer waters and a clear Calling of music from some lonely star. I thought I heard the lisp of falling dew In a dark meadow where no breezes stirred. … Then all at once the noisy street, and you Smiling at me because I had not heard!

Ex parte David Taylor
THIS case came before the court upon the following motion and petition:--
Ex parte DAVID TAYLOR.
{Petition for a Mandamus to the Judges of the Circuit Court of the District of Columbia, for Washington County.
The above petitioner moves the honorable the Judges of the Supreme Court of the United States, for a rule on the Judges of the Circuit Court of the District of Columbia for Washington County, to show cause why a mandamus should not issue commanding them to admit the appearance of the petitioner to a suit in said court, by Thomas Ewing, Jr., against said petitioner; and the petitioner moves for the said rule on his petition, and the transcript therewith filed.
1. Because there is no legal cause of bail set forth in the proceedings in said suit, and by the refusal of the Circuit Court to allow his appearance to be entered to said suit, he is unlawfully detained in custody by the marshal of said district.
2. Because the act of Maryland, passed in 1715, c. 46, § 3, is in force in the county of Washington, and nowise repealed, and the petitioner was by virue of said act entitled to appear to said suit, on giving special bail in the sum of one hundred and thirty-three dollars thirty-three and a third cents. But the court refused to allow him so to appear, or to enter bail in said amount.
3. Because the petitioner has a legal right to appear without bail, or upon giving bail to the amount required by the act of 1715, c. 46, § 3, and thereby to be discharged from prison, and the said legal right does not depend on the discretion of the court, but is fixed and regulated by law, and there is other legal remedy for the petitioner in the premises.
