Alright, I'm not going to let you out so easily, but I'll be more clear as to why I'm asking.
I'm playing Socrates on you. The definitions of "person" and "credible" are not a problem for me.

So, please, what does "justly" mean here? j On Mar 27, 2006, at 9:24 PM, Terry L Parker wrote: > Jim, sorry; my turn at the stooopid pill :) > > You asked about the word 'justly' that described held possessions > of the innocent person.
