Anecdote of Waller and a Tudor court dinner
A fragment from a century past recounts a dinner with Charles I where the King pressed bishops to answer if he could take subjects' money without Parliament.

The piece also notes a Connecticut divorce case where a wife’s abusive acts led to a contested petition and the divorce was granted.
