sting v
1890 Evening Telegram 9 Sep He once sent an urchin to the penitentiary for thirty days for taking a turnip out of the field of a well-to-do personage. 'Stinging crabs' is a high misdemeanor in the estimation of this upright magistrate... There would be little wonder if one day he would...sentence the juvenile offenders to be hanged on a sour apple-tree.
