  Speaker 3: Has not been.
• 17:02
  Speaker 9: And I suggest that in his last few words, my
• 17:05
  Speaker 9: opponent gave away his entire season. It is evident that

  Speaker 9: the petitioners believe that my client should conduct his affairs
• 17:16
  Speaker 9: in such a way as to ensure that.
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: His nephews, meieces and their issue.

  Speaker 9: he has a higher regard for personal liberty, and then
• 18:16
  Speaker 9: added that any action he took would be in your interest.
• 18:20
