“You did wilfully aid the guilty to escape; by our laws, that is a serious crime. What have you to say in your defence?”


As denunciations went, the Doctor considered this one rather tame.


“Guilty? It was a goat!”


“It committed a theft. It broke into Goodman Durren’s orchard and ate the fallen apples that were to be made into cider.”


“Then Goodman Durren should build a better fence. That one wouldn’t keep anything out.”


“Nevertheless, a crime was committed.”


“It was a GOAT! You people have way too much time on your hands if you go around prosecuting livestock.”
