So Generous

A Dublin lawyer died in poverty and many barristers of the city subscribed to a fund for his funeral. 

The Lord Chief Justice of Orbury was asked to donate a shilling.

 "Only a shilling?" said the man. "Only a shilling to bury an attorney? Here's a guinea; go and bury 20 more of them."
