An Old Story.


It is related Of Sir Edward Coke, the author
of "Coke upon Littleton," and one Of Eng
lands most honest judges, that while sitting
at circuit, on cert.in case being called, in
which wealthy gentleman was plaintiff, he
asked. Is not this plaintiff the man who re-
Gently sent mea buck 2" Yes, your Lordship7'
he replied, " it has been my custom to send a
buck to whatever judge should come down to
this circuit from time immemorial." But
cannot hear this case answered the Judge,
until have paid you for your vcnison.
'Then,' said Sir knight, Indignantly, with
draw my case. ! will not try it before judge
who suspects me of bribery for rendering an
ordinary hospitality And I, replied Sir Ed
ward Coke, cannot afford to receive even hos
pitality where it may be mistaken for bribery
The story is old and the incident historical.
