Bir Waller Scott had his share of the
n-ual eurlona experience-* shortly after
being cnlleil to the bar. His fir «t np-
pearanee us connsel in a eriuiiuul court
was at Jedburgh ns4slr.es In 1703. wliou
he successfully defended a veteran
poacher. "You're a Ibcky scoundrel."
Scott whispered to Ills client when the
verdict was given. "I'm Jiwt o' jour
mind," returned the latter, "and I'll
send you a niaukin (I. e„ a liare) the
nioru, man." Lock hart, who narrates
the Inchleut. omits to add whether tbe
tiiaiikin iluly reached Scott, but uo
doubt It did. Oti another occasion Scott
wan lesa successful In bis defense of a
housebreaker, but the culprit, grateful
for Ills counsel's exertions, gave blm, in
lieu of the orthodox fee, which he was
iinnDle to pay, tliia piece of ailvlce, to
the value of which lie (the hoiisehrenk-
eri could professionally attest: First,
never to have a large watchdog- out of
tloors, but to keep a Utile yelping ter-
rier wlt'iln. and, secondly, to put no
trust In nice, clever, gimcrack locks,
but to p'n his fnlth to a hugo oUl heavy
one with a rusty key. Scott long re-
membered this incident, and thirty
years la cr, at a judges' dinner at .led-
btirgh, be recalled It In this impromptu
