LAWYER Scored on judge.

Lord Mansfield received hard set,
ting down from Thomas Erskine. The
latter was arguing a case before the
house of lords-a Scottish appeal re
lating to a trust estate. In the course
of his argument he had frequent occa-
sion TO use the word curator" always
pronouncing 1t In the manner approved
in the Scottish courts; that is, with
the accent on the first syllable.
This grated upon the ears of Lord
Mansfield. who. though Scotsman by
birth. had taken pains to become
Anglicized. At last he broke out:
"Mr. Erskine, We are in the habit In
this country of saying curator. fol-
lowing the analogy of the Latin. in
which, as you are doubtless aware. the
penultimate syllable is long"
81 thank your lordship very much"
returned Erskine. we are weak
enough in Scotland to think that In
pronouncing the word curator we are
following the analogy OF the English
language, but need scarcely say that
