  A LAWYER in whom an instinct of justice had survived the wreck1 of

  his ignorance of law was retained for the defence of a burglar whom

  the police had taken after a desperate struggle with someone not in

  custody2. In consultation3 with his client the Lawyer asked, "Have

  you accomplices4?"

  "Yes, sir," replied the Burglar. "I have two, but neither has been

  taken. I hired one to defend me against capture, you to defend me

  against conviction."

  This answer deeply impressed the Lawyer, and having ascertained5

  that the Burglar had accumulated no money in his profession he

  threw up the case.
