Later, this custom was abolished and money was given in stead, It was then called "salarium”, a word which has now become salary, Thus a man who is ''worth his salt* is worth the salary paid him,. Why Do We Speak of the "Lynch Law”? In the early days of the .United States, Virginia State was governed by one Charles Lynch who gained not oriety by his harsh administration of justice.

I didn’t tarry.” ' The lawyer smiled. “How many shots were fired?” “Jes’ one. Ah heard it twice, an Ah ought to know.” “Heard it twice?
