James’s Claim.
The case was this: John Parrock was attained of High Treason, and his estate seized and advertised for sale. Abel James filed a claim, according to the act of Assembly, passed the 6th day of March 1778, in order to obtain a decree establishing his right, to what, he alledged, was a vested remainder in him, after the expiration of an estate for life, which, he contended, was all that John Parrock was possessed of in the premisses, and he never had any issue.
​ The question depended on the due construction of the following devise.–
   “I devise the residue of my estate to John Parrock, during the term of his natural life, and if he leaves lawful issue, then I give my real estate unto such issue: But, in case of his dying without issue, or they dying under the age of twenty one years, then I devise all my real estate unto Abel James his heirs and assigns, on condition that he, or they, pay the Pennsylvania Hospital £.300.”
After argument, the Chief Justice delivered the opinion of the Court as follows:
M’kean, Chief Justice: The remainder in fee of this estate is claimed by Abel James; who alledges that, whether the estate given to Parrock was for life, or in tail, he is entitled to a vested remainder in fee, which is not barred by the attainder of Parrock. The Court, however, are of opinion, that the word issue in this case is a limitation, and that John Parrock took an estate tail under this devise. Probably, indeed, no more than an estate for life was intended to have been given to him, but the law supervenes that intention. There is a second intention, manifest in the will, which is to be carried into execution; that is, that the issue should take in succession, which they could not do, without a previous estate of inheritance in the father.
The meaning of the testator appears appear clearly to have been, that the estate should not go over, while there was any issue, and it is expressly provided, that all must be extinct, and none have attained the age of twenty one years, before it should pass to Able James.
This is not a new case; for, it has been long settled, that the words “natural life,” make no difference. Sunday’s case 9 Co. Rep. 276. Helin and Jenings. 1 Freem. Rep. 509—2 Eq.

As therefore, John Parrock took an estate tail, the land was forfeited by the attainder; and the claim of Abel James must be dismissed.
The claim dismissed.

United States Supreme Court
402 U.S. 137
James et al. v. Valtierra et al.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California
No. 154. Argued: March 3-4, 1971 --- Decided: April 26, 1971
Appellees, who are eligible for low-cost public housing, challenged the requirement of Art. XXXIV of the California Constitution that no low-rent housing project be developed, constructed, or acquired by any state public body without the approval of a majority of those voting at a community election, as violative of the Supremacy, Privileges and Immunities, and Equal Protection Clauses of the United States Constitution. A three-judge District Court enjoined the enforcement of the referendum provision on the ground that it denied appellees equal protection of the laws, relying chiefly on Hunter v. Erickson, 393 U.S. 385.
Held: The California procedure for mandatory referendums, which is not limited to proposals involving low-cost public housing, ensures democratic decisionmaking, and does not violate the Equal Protection Clause. Hunter v. Erickson, supra, distinguished. Pp. 140-143.
313 F. Supp. 1, reversed and remanded.
BLACK, J., delivered the opinion of the Court, in which BURGER, C.J., and HARLAN, STEWART, and WHITE, JJ., joined. MARSHALL, J., filed a dissenting opinion, in which BRENNAN and BLACKMUN, JJ., joined, post, p. 143. DOUGLAS, J., took no part in the consideration or decision of the cases.
Donald C. Atkinson argued the cause and filed a brief for appellants in No. 154. Moses Lasky argued the cause for appellant in No. 226. With him on the briefs was Malcolm T. Dungan.
Archibald Cox argued the cause for appellees in both cases. On the brief were Lois P. Sheinfeld and Anthony G. Amsterdam. Warren Christopher and Donald M. Wessling filed a brief for appellee Housing Authority of the city of San Jose in both cases.
Briefs of amici curiae urging affirmance in both cases were filed by Solicitor General Griswold, Assistant Attorney General Leonard, and Lawrence G. Wallace for the United States, and by Louis J. Lefkowitz, Attorney General, pro se, Samuel A. Hirshowitz, First Assistant Attorney General, and George D. Zuckerman, Dominick J. Tuminaro, and Lloyd G. Milliken, Assistant Attorneys General, for the Attorney General of the State of New York.

But by the court:– A third perfon fully acquainted fully acquainted with the circumftances ought certainly to be admitted to make the affidavit of a defence when the party himfelf from extreme ficknefs is incapable of making it ; but when he is prefent, and fubject to no difability, it is regularly incumbent upon him to do it.

Wrong! Is it wrong? well, may be;
But I'm going, boys, all the same.
Do they think me a Burgher's baby,
To be scared by a scolding name?
They may argue, and prate, and order;
Go, tell them to save their breath:
Then, over the Transvaal border,
And gallop for life or death!   Let lawyers and statesmen addle
Their pates over points of law:
If sound be our sword, and saddle,
And gun-gear, who cares one straw?
When men of our own blood pray us
To ride to their kinsfolk's aid,
Not Heaven itself shall stay us
From the rescue they call a raid.
There are girls in the gold-reef city,
There are mothers and children too!
And they cry, "Hurry up! For pity!"
So what can a brave man do?
If even we win they'll blame us:
If we fail, they will howl and hiss.
But there's many a man lives famous
For daring a wrong like this!
So we forded and galloped forward
As hard as our beasts could pelt,
First eastward, then trending nor'ward.
Eight over the rolling veldt;
Till we came to the Burghers lying
In a hollow with hill behind,
And their bullets came hissing, flying,
Like hail on an Arctic wind.
Right sweet is the marksman's rattle,
And sweeter the cannon's roar;
But 'tis bitterly bad to battle,
Beleaguered, and one to four.
I can tell you it wasn't a trifle
To swarm over Krugersdorp Glen,
As they plied us with round and rifle,
And ploughed us again — and again.
Then we made for the gold-reef city,
Retreating, but not in rout.
They had called to us, "Quick! For pity!"
And he said, "They will sally out —
They will hear us come. Who doubts it?"
But how if they don't — what then?
"Well, worry no more about it,
But fight to the death like men."
Not a soul had supped or slumbered
Since the Borderland stream was cleft;
But we fought, even more outnumbered,
Till we had not a cartridge left.
We're not very soft or tender,
Or given to weep for woe,
But it breaks one to have to render
One's sword to the strongest foe.
I suppose we were wrong, were madmen,
Still I think at the Judgment Day,
When God sifts the good from the bad men,
There'll be something more to say.
We were wrong, but we aren't half sorry;
And as one of the baffled band,
I would rather have had that foray
Than the crushing of all the Rand.

# Jamestown Northern Railroad Company v. Jones

United States Supreme Court
177 U.S. 125
Jamestown Northern Railroad Company v. Jones
Argued: February 1, 1900. --- Decided: March 26, 1900
This suit was brought by plaintiff in error to have itself adjudged the owner of a right 8, in township 141, of range 64, in the county of Stutsman, state of North Dakota.
Its title rests upon the act of Congress of March 3, 1875, entitled, 'An Act Granting to Railroads the Right of Way through the Public Lands of the United States.'
The plaintiff was organized September 17, 1881, under the laws of the territory of Dakota. After its organization it surveyed a line of route for its railroad from a point near Jamestown in a northwesterly direction through the county of Stutsman and over the land in controversy. The survey was finished the 30th of October, 1881. A map representing the survey was made by a resolution of the board of directors, and was adopted as the definite route of the railroad.
In 1882 the road was constructed upon the line surveyed, and since that time trains have been continuously run over it by the plaintiff.
On the 26th of January, 1883, the plaintiff filed with the Secretary of the Interior a copy of its articles of incorporation, and due proofs of its organization under the same. On the 13th of March, 1883, plaintiff's map of definite location was filed and approved by the Secretary of the Interior. There was some uncertainty in the evidence whether such map was ever filed in the office of the register of the local land office, but it probably was.
On the 12th of February, 1881, the land then being public land of the United States, duly surveyed, one Sherman Jones filed a declaratory statement upon it, alleging settlement the 8th of February, 1881. On the 13th of March, 1883, it had not been canceled or vacated.

THE SATIRES OF PERSIUS
THE SATIRES OF PERSIUS
THE PROLOGUE
I never soused my lips in the Nag's Spring; never, that I can remember, did I dream on the two-topped Parnasus, that I should thus come forth suddenly as a poet. The maidens of Mount Helicon, and the blanching waters of Pirene, I give up to the gentlemen round whose busts the clinging ivy twines; it is but as a half-member of the community that I bring my lay to the holy feast of the bards. Who made it so easy for the parrot to chirp his "good morrow"? Who taught the magpie to ape the language of man? It was that master of the arts, that dispenser of genius, the Belly, who has a rare skill in getting at words which are not his own. If only the enticing hope of money were to flash upon them, you would believe that raven poets and magpie poetesses were singing the pure nectar of the muses.

IN THE SEVEN WOODS
I have heard the pigeons of the Seven Woods Make their faint thunder, and the garden bees Hum in the lime tree flowers; and put away The unavailing outcries and the old bitterness That empty the heart. I have forgot awhile Tara uprooted, and new commonness Upon the throne and crying about the streets And hanging its paper flowers from post to post, Because it is alone of all things happy. I am contented for I know that Quiet Wanders laughing and eating her wild heart Among pigeons and bees, while that Great Archer, Who but awaits His hour to shoot, still hangs A cloudy quiver over Parc-na-Lee.

# In the Seven Woods/Adam's Curse

Layout 2
ADAM'S CURSE
We sat together at one summer's end That beautiful mild woman your close friend And you and I, and talked of poetry.
I said 'a line will take us hours maybe, Yet if it does not seem a moment's thought Our stitching and unstitching has been naught. Better go down upon your marrow bones And scrub a kitchen pavement, or break stones Like an old pauper in all kinds of weather; For to articulate sweet sounds together Is to work harder than all these and yet Be thought an idler by the noisy set Of bankers, schoolmasters, and clergymen The martyrs call the world.'
That woman then Murmured with her young voice, for whose mild sake There's many a one shall find out all heartache In finding that it's young and mild and low. 'There is one thing that all we women know Although we never heard of it at school, That we must labour to be beautiful.'
I said, 'It's certain there is no fine thing Since Adam's fall but needs much labouring. ​There have been lovers who thought love should be So much compounded of high courtesy That they would sigh and quote with learned looks Precedents out of beautiful old books; Yet now it seems an idle trade enough'.
We sat grown quiet at the name of love. We saw the last embers of daylight die And in the trembling blue-green of the sky A moon, worn as if it had been a shell Washed by time's waters as they rose and fell About the stars and broke in days and years.
I had a thought for no one's but your ears; That you were beautiful and that I strove To love you in the old high way of love; That it had all seemed happy, and yet we'd grown As weary hearted as that hollow moon.

THE ARROW
I thought of your beauty and this arrow Made out of a wild thought is in my marrow. There's no man may look upon her, no man, As when newly grown to be a woman, Blossom pale, she pulled down the pale blossom At the moth hour and hid it in her bosom. This beauty's kinder yet for a reason I could weep that the old is out of season.
