Explore "In Re a Gentleman, One" by Andrew Barton Paterson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
When an attorney is called before the Full Court to answer / for any alleged misconduct it is not usual to publish his name / until he is found guilty; until then the matter appears in the papers / as "In re a Gentleman, One of the Attorneys of the Supreme Court", / or, more shortly, "In re a Gentleman, One".
We see it each day in the paper, / And know that there's mischief in store; / That some unprofessional caper / Has landed a shark on the shore. / We know there'll be plenty of trouble / Before they get through with the fun, / Because he's been coming the double / On clients, has "Gentleman, One".
