A Dorothy L. Sayers Mystery

A Dorothy L. Sayers Mystery1987



Lord Peter Wimsey:
[Referring to the Vane Murder Trial] What did you think of the verdict?

Pond:
Ooo, very surprised... surprised indeed! Seemed a clear enough case, but then juries are so unreliable - especially nowadays, my lord with women on them.

Lord Peter Wimsey:
[Seemingly agreeing or understanding] Mmm.

Pond:
We see a good deal of the fair sex in the profession, and very few of them are remarkable for possessing the... uh... legal mind.

Lord Peter Wimsey:
However true that is, still without them, there'd be much less litigation, so it's all good for business.

Pond:
[Chuckles] Very good, my lord. Very good. I am and old-fashioned man. The ladies - when they adorned and inspired - did not take any active part in affairs.
