NOT WHAT HE MEANT
An amusing story is told by Mr Bray, Q.C. Some time ago Mr Bray was examining a medical witness in a “running down” case. The doctor was giving details as to the injuries received when Mr Bray gravely asked: “And, sir, have you attended the plaintiff since he committed suicide?” A pause ensued, which was followed by a roar of laughter round the Court, while the confused counsel hastily busied himself in his brief. To this day not even Mr Bray himself knows what question he intended to ask.
