Mulepate's farm Mr.. Mulepate picked
the pumpkins and hauled them home,
whereupon Mr.. Peelgaric replevied the
pumpkins and had him arrested for
stealing. Mr.. Mulepate claims the pump
kins because they were born and grew
to maturity on his land while on the
other side, Peelgaric says that he is en-
titled to the pumpkins because of the
fact that every whit of their substance
was extracted from his soil, where the
pumpkins were rooted. Each party can
prove his claims, thus leaving the case
with the wisdom of the Judge, who is so
baffied that he will call seance to con-
suit with the shade Of Solomon.
