The husband is not liable for the criminal conduct of his wife. - John Eardley Wilmot

Many of the old cases are strange and absurd : so also are some of the modern ones.

The sentences of foreign Courts have always some degree of regard paid to them by the Courts of justice here: and it is very right that an attention should be paid to them, as far as they ought to have weight in the case depending.

The manner of the transaction was to gild over and conceal the truth; and whenever Courts of law see such attempts made to conceal such wicked deeds they will brush away the cobweb varnish and show the transactions in their true light.
