The title has two contacts with the play. No jury possessed of jthe native chivalry of regular he- Americans could possibly convict a pretty woman with a child, declares a weeping bystander, And no jury would so readily acquit a gnilty woman, whatever jher appearance, if it were not for jthe appeal to the false sense of chivalry which is their pride.
