Chevy Court

Famous quotes containing the words chevy and/or court:

    The hounds ran swiftly through the woods
    The nimble deere to take,
    That with their cryes the hills and dales
    An eccho shrill did make.

    When a man’s feeling and character are injured, he ought to seek a speedy redress.... My character you have injured, and further you have insulted me in the presence of a court and large audience. I therefore call upon you as a gentleman to give me satisfaction for the same.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
