that no living soul was so senseiess

and gratitude, but with concern.

sci concluded that II he could produce
esty all would be we'll, and to obtain
an acquittal would mean much. as far as
his future practice was concerned. Like
most suspects the client was penniless.
so to procure the necessary evidence II
was needful to provide the means. The
advocate gave his client a franc piece
(about dollar) and suggested that he
should take IL to the police and say he
found 1t In the street, and thus obtain
a receipt. The client acquiesced. went to
the police office and returned with re-
ceipt. The advocate gave cursory glance
at the document and tied 1t up with his
brief, little thinking of the sequel.
On the day Of the trial the young advo-
cate relied entirely on the police receipt
and thus terminated his appeal to the
jury: II have a document which shows
that during the past week my client
found 5 franc piece In the street and
without delay took IT to the police. Is
that the act OF a thief?" Then he tr-
umphantly handed the document TO the
president Of the court. The judge eX-
amined IL closely and asked:
Was it francs that he found7"
Yes. Mr.. President" was the deply

Is for one franc only"

counsel or the sharpness Of his client ac-
quilted the honest knave,
