United States Supreme Court
67 U.S. 541
Callan v. May
Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Columbia.
The record brought up by this appeal showed that in 1862 a cause was pending in the Circuit Court for the District of Columbia designated as Statham et al. vs. Callan et al. In that cause the Court made certain decrees and decretal orders in pursuance of which a sale was made by trustees of some real property in the City of Washington. The purchaser at the first sale made by the trustees was J. J. Waring, whose contract was annulled by his failure to comply with the terms of it. Another sale was then regularly made under the order of the Court to Austin Sherman, who assigned his right to John Frederick May, and May having fully complied with the terms of the sale, a final order ratifying and confirming it was made by the Court. May being by virtue of these proceedings the owner of the property in question, found John F. Callan in possession. Callan refused to go out, alleging that he was there under an agreement made between himself and Waring, the purchaser at the first sale, who had made default. He asserted also that May had confirmed this agreement of Waring, and made it binding upon himself by accepting the note which was due under it. May then presented his petition to the Court, setting forth the facts and praying for process to put him in possession. Callan answered the petition. The Court found that May was entitled to possession, and awarded him a writ of habere facias possessionem. Callan petitioned for an appeal to the Supreme Court. The appeal was allowed on special allocatur, by Mr. Justice Wayne, and the record brought up. May moved to dismiss on the ground that no appeal would lie from such an order as that made in his favor by the Circuit Court.
Mr. Carlisle, of Washington City, and Mr. May, of Maryland, for the motion.
Mr. Coxe, of Washington City, contra.
Mr. Chief Justice TANEY.

# Callan v. Bransford/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
139 U.S. 197
Callan v. Bransford
These cases are brought here by writ of error to the supreme court of appeals of the state of Virginia, except Dillard v. Moorman, No. 1,638, which is a writ of error to the corporation court for the city of Lynchburg. A motion is now made in each case by plaintiff in error to advance, and a motion to dismiss on behalf of defendant in eror. It appears from the motion papers that Callan v. Bransford, No. 1,271, was carried to the court of appeals on writ of error to the corporation court of the city of Lynchburg, (10 S. E. Rep. 317,) and that Gregory v. Bransford, no. 1,595, Litchford v. Day, v. Bransford, No. 1,595, Litchford v. Day, 1,597, were taken to that court by appeal. See 12 S. E. Rep. 107-109. The writ of error in the one case and the appeals in the three others were dismissed by the court of appeals upon the ground that the matters involved were purely pecuniary, and that the amount in controversy in each case was less than sufficient to give the court jurisdiction under the constitution of the state. This being so, we are of opinion that the writs of error to that court must be dismissed, and it will be so ordered. The motion papers in Jones v. Com., No. 1,594, Mallan v. Bransford, No. 1,596, and Dillard v. Moorman, No. 1,638, are not such that we can pass upon the motions to dismiss without referring to the transcripts on file, which we ought not to be obliged to do. These motions and the motions to advance will be denied, but without prejudice.

If trees were tall and grasses short,  As in some crazy tale, If here and there a sea were blue  Beyond the breaking pale,
If a fixed fire hung in the air  To warm me one day through, If deep green hair grew on great hills,  I know what I should do.
In dark I lie; dreaming that there  Are great eyes cold or kind, And twisted streets and silent doors,  And living men behind.
Let storm clouds come: better an hour,  And leave to weep and fight, Than all the ages I have ruled  The empires of the night.
I think that if they gave me leave  Within the world to stand, I would be good through all the day  I spent in fairyland.
They should not hear a word from me  Of selfishness or scorn, If only I could find the door,  If only I were born.

Place park, scene dark, Silv'ry moon is shining thro' the trees; Cast two, me, you, Sound of kisses floating on the breeze.
Act one, begun, Dialogue, "Where would you like to spoon?" My cue, with you, Underneath the silv'ry moon.
By the light of the silvery moon, I want to spoon, To my honey I'll croon love's tune, Honeymoon keep a-shining in June, Your silv'ry beams will bring love dreaams, We'll be cuddling soon By the silvery moon.
Act two, scene new, Roses blooming all around the place; Cast three, you, me, Preacher with a solemn looking face.
Choir sings, bell rings Preacher: "You are wed forevermore." Act two, all through, Ev'ry night the same encore.
By the light of the silvery moon, I want to spoon, To my honey I'll croon love's tune, Honeymoon keep a-shining in June, Your silv'ry beams will bring love dreaams, We'll be cuddling soon By the silvery moon.

# By the Grey Gulf-water

Far to the Northward there lies a land, A wonderful land that the winds blow over, And none may fathom or understand The charm it holds for the restless rover; A great grey chaos -- a land half made, Where endless space is and no life stirreth; There the soul of a man will recoil afraid From the sphinx-like visage that Nature weareth. But old Dame Nature, though scornful, craves Her dole of death and her share of slaughter; Many indeed are the nameless graves Where her victims sleep by the Grey Gulf-water.
Slowly and slowly those grey streams glide, Drifting along with a languid motion, Lapping the reed-beds on either side, Wending their way to the North Ocean. Grey are the plains where the emus pass Silent and slow, with their dead demeanour; Over the dead man's graves the grass Maybe is waving a trifle greener. Down in the world where men toil and spin Dame Nature smiles as man's hand has taught her; Only the dead men her smiles can win In the great lone land by the Grey Gulf-water.
For the strength of man is an insect's strength In the face of that mighty plain and river, And the life of a man is a moment's length To the life of the stream that will run for ever. And so it comes that they take no part In small world worries; each hardy rover Rides like a paladin, light of heart, With the plains around and the blue sky over. And up in the heavens the brown lark sings The songs the strange wild land has taught her; Full of thanksgiving her sweet song rings -- And I wish I were back by the Grey Gulf-water.
This work is in the public domain in Australia because it was created in Australia and the term of copyright has expired. According to Australian Copyright Council - Duration of Copyright, the following works are public domain:
* published non-government works whose author died before January 1, 1955,
* anonymous or pseudonymous works and photographs published before January 1, 1955, and
* government works published more than 50 years ago (before January 1, 1974).
This work is also in the public domain in the United States because it was first published outside the United States (and not published in the U.S. within 30 days), and it was first published before 1989 without complying with U.S. copyright formalities (renewal and/or copyright notice) and it was in the public domain in Australia on the URAA date (January 1, 1996). This is the combined effect of Australia having joined the Berne Convention in 1928, and of 17 USC 104A with its critical date of January 1, 1996.
Because the Australian copyright term in 1996 was 50 years, the critical date for copyright in the United States under the URAA is January 1, 1946.

It is recorded, in the Travancore Census Report, 1901, that "tradition states that Sankarāchārya, to test the fidelity of certain Brahmins to the established ordinances of caste, went to a liquor-shop, and drank some stimulants. Not recognising that the obligations, from which adepts like Sankara were free, were none the less binding on the proletariat, the Brahmins that accompanied the sage made this an excuse for their drinking too. Sankara is said to have then entered a foundry, and swallowed a cup of molten metal, and handed another to the Brahmins, who had apparently made up their minds to do all that may be done by the Āchārya. But they begged to differ, apologised to him as Atiyāls or humble servants, and accepted social degradation in expiation of their sinful presumption. They are now the priests in temples dedicated to Bhadrakāli, and other goddesses who receive offerings of liquor. They practise sorcery, and aid in the exorcising of spirits. They have the upanayana-samskāra, and wear the sacred thread. The sīmantam ceremony is not performed. They are to repeat the Gāyatri (hymn) ten times, and observe eleven ​days' death pollution. Their own caste-men act as priests. The Atiyammamar wear the same jewellery as the Nambūtiri women, but they do not screen themselves by a cadjan (palm leaf) umbrella when they go out in public, nor are they accompanied by a Nāyar maid."

# Castes and Tribes of Southern India/Adichchan

​Adichchan.—A sub-division of Nāyar.
# Castes and Tribes of Southern India/Agasa

​Agasa.—In the South Canara district, there are three distinct classes of washermen, viz., (1) Konkani Christians; (2) Canarese-speaking washermen, who seem to be allied to the Agasas of Mysore; 3) Tulu-speaking washermen. The Tulu-speaking Agasas follow the aliya santāna law of inheritance (in the female line). Madivāla (madi, a clean cloth) is a synonym for ​Agasa. The word Agasa is derived from agasi, a turban.
The Agasas of Mysore have been described as follows.* "The Agasa is a member of the village hierarchy, his office being hereditary, and his remuneration being grain fees from the ryots. Besides washing, he occasionally ekes out his substance by carrying on his donkeys grain from place to place. He is also employed in bearing the torch in marriage and other public ceremonies. The principal object of worship is the pot of boiling water (ubbe), in which dirty clothes are steeped. Animals are sacrificed to the god with the view of preventing the clothes being burnt in the ubbe pot. Under the name of Bhūma Dēva, there are temples dedicated to this god in some large towns, the service being conducted by pūjāris (priests) of the Agasa caste. The Agasas are Vishnuvaits, and pray to Vishnu, Pattalamma, and the saktis. Their gurus (religious preceptors) are Sātānis. A unique custom is attached to the washerman's office. When a girl-wife attains puberty, it is the duty and privilege of the washerman to carry the news, accompanied by certain presents, to her husband's parents, for which the messenger is duly rewarded."
The Tulu Madivālas of the South Canara district, like other Tulu castes, have exogamous septs or balis.They will wash clothes for all castes above the Billavas. They also supply cloths for decorating the marriage booth and funeral cars, and carry torches. They worship bhūthas (devils), of whom the principal one seems to be Jumadi. At the time of kōlas (bhūtha festivals), the Madivālas have the right to cut off the heads of the ​fowls or goats, which are sacrificed. The animals are held by Pombadas or Paravas, and the Madivāla decapitates them. On the seventh day after the birth of a child, the washerwoman ties a thread round its waist. For purificatory ceremonies, the Madivāli should give washed clothes to those under pollution.
In their ceremonial observances, the Madivālas closely follow the Bants. In some places, they have a headman called, as among the Bants, Gurikara or Guttinaya. At marriages, the pouring of the dhāre water over the united hands of the bride and bridegroom is the duty of the father or maternal uncle of the bride, not of the headman.
Some Marātha washermen call themselves Dandu (army) Agasa.
The insigne of the washermen at Conjeeveram is a pot, such as that in which clothes are boiled.
