Yes, Sir, in those little chambers just over your head--I fancy the young gentleman knows him. JACK. Who? Mr. Woodford! Lord as well as myself, he is a sweet sober youth, and will one day make a vast figure, I am sure. SERJEANT. Indeed! JACK. I am positive, Sir, if you were to hear him speak at the Robinhood in the Butcher-row, you would say so yourself: why he is now reckon'd the third; except the breeches-maker from Barbican, and Sawny Sinclair the snuffman, there is not a mortal can touch him. SERJEANT. Peace, puppy; well Mr. Fairplay, leave the papers a little longer with me and--pray who is employ'd against you? FAIRPLAY. A city attorney, one Sheepskin. SERJEANT. A cunning fellow, I know him; well, Sir, if you will call at Pump-court in a week. FAIRPLAY. I shall attend you. SERJEANT. Jack, open the door for Mr.--[_Exeunt_ Fairplay _and_ Jack.] Something may be made of this matter: I'll see this Sheepskin myself. So much in future for carrying on the suit, or so much in hand to make it miscarry: a wise man should well weigh which party to take for. _Enter_ Jack. So, Jack, any body at chambers to day? JACK. Fieri Facias from Fetter lane, about the bill to be filed by Kit Crape against Will Vizard, this term. SERJEANT. Praying for an equal partition of plunder? JACK. Yes, Sir. SERJEANT. Strange world we live in, that even highwaymen can't be true to each other! [_half aside to himself._] but we shall make master Vizard refund, we'll shew him what long hands the law has. JACK. Facias says, that in all the books he can't hit on a precedent. SERJEANT. Then I'll make one myself; _aut inveniam, aut faciam_, has been always my motto. The charge must be made for partnership-profit, by bartering lead and gunpowder, against money, watches, and rings, on Epping-forest, Hounslow-heath, and other parts of the kingdom. JACK. He says, if the court should get scent of the scheme, the parties would all stand committed. SERJEANT. Cowardly rascal! but however, the caution mayn't prove amiss. [_Aside._] I'll not put my own name to the bill. JACK. The declaration too is deliver'd in the cause of Roger Rapp'em against Sir Solomon Simple. SERJEANT. What, the affair of the note? JACK. Yes. SERJEANT. Why he is clear that his client never gave such a note. JACK. Defendant never saw plaintiff since the hour he was born; but, notwithstanding, they have three witnesses to prove a consideration, and signing the note. SERJEANT. They have? JACK. He is puzzled what plea to put in. SERJEANT. _Three_ witnesses ready, you say? JACK. Yes. SERJEANT. Tell him Simple must acknowledge the note, [Jack _starts_] and bid him, against the trial comes on, to procure _four_ persons at least to prove the payment, at the Crown and Anchor, the 10th of December. JACK. But then how comes the note to remain in plaintiff's possession? SERJEANT.
