The English king who locked up the money-lender and had one of his teeth drawn out each day until he made the desired loan knew his business.

Once the fellow is out of jail--pfft! He is gone, and neither the place nor you know him more.

Very likely also he will jump his bail and you will have to make good your bond.

One client in jail is worth two at large.
Lawyers exercise much invention in keeping their clients under control.

I recall one recent case where a French chauffeur who had but just arrived in this country was arrested for speeding.
The most that could happen to him would, in the natural course of events, be a fine of fifteen or twenty dollars.
