On what account? I did not like her, and I told her I'd have nothing to do with _her_ any more. After that what did you do? Oh, I rambled about. Where did you go? To Jersey and elsewhere. Well, Sir, go on. Non mi ricordo. Do you mean to say that you never went to Manchester Square? More yes than no. Were you in the house on the footing of a private friend? No, not as a friend. You {075}mentioned your father just now:--you did not go in your father's _cart_, I presume; in what sort of carriage did you go? In the old yellow chariot. How long did it take you to travel from Manchester Square to Richmond? Non mi ricordo. How many other places did you go to? Non mi ricordo. Is the Marquis of C. a married man? (_Order. Order._) After you parted from your wife, on what terms did you live? I've been _trying_ to get rid of her. Do you know what Matthew says (c. v. v. 32.)? Matthew? Matthew? (_trying to recollect_)--what Matthew?--he's no friend of mine. In what light do you consider your oath at the marriage ceremony? A ceremony. If your marriage oath has not bound you, can you expect people to believe you if ever you should take a solemn public oath? More yes than no. By the Roman law, a divorce was granted for Drunkenness, Adultery, and _False Keys_: what is your opinion of that law? The Twister General said, that it was contrary to common sense to ask the witness's opinion about any _Law_. How many Wives does _your_ Church allow you? Non mi ricordo. How many have you had since you separated from your own? Non mi ricordo. Are you a Member of the Society for the Suppression of Vice? Yes (_with great energy_). The Cross-examining Counsel said that the Interpreter had materially altered the sense of the last question; {076}he had in fact asked, if the Witness was Member of the Society for the suppression of _Wives, (a loud laugh)_ which Witness had eagerly answered in the affirmative. The Witness's answer was expunged, and on the question being repeated correctly, he answered that he was told it was his duty to encourage the _Vice_ Society, because it professed to diminish the influence of bad example. Have they ever prosecuted you? Me!--(_with astonishment_)--they like _me_ too well! What do you mean then by Suppression--is your Soeiety to prevent little vice from being committed, or great vice from being found out? More Yes than No. It was here moved by Lord Le Cuisinier, that 4 o'Clock, the hour of dinner, was arrived. Another, in a maiden Speeeh, said, that during his long silence in that Court he had had leisure to observe, that 4 o'Clock in the _morning_ was a more usual hour of adjournment.
