L. Pres. If there be a special plea wherein there is no difficulty, then we give no counsel; but a special plea must have something that is dubious in the judgement of the Court; but for this, that in the letter of the law every School boy understands; the Judge will not allow you counsel in a trivial matter; we have gone over and over with you again, and this is like other discourses with you; but certainly never was the like seen, that a Court was so trifled with.
