A simple case of ejectment could scarcely have called for that imposing array of learned counsel who had repaired to this unfrequented spot; so small a skirmish could never have called for the horse, foot, and dragoons of law,-the wily conveyancer, the clap-trap orator, the browbeater of witnesses, and the light sharpshooter at technicalities; and yet there they were all met, and-with all reverence be it spoken-very jolly companions they were.

Charles James Lever
He has had a good legal education, and is considered very clever as a conveyancer.
"Anecdotes & Incidents of the Deaf and Dumb"
W. R. Roe
Absolutely no help presents itself but that of a Mr. Danby, a conveyancer, who, in some way not very consonant with the usual etiquette of his profession, has been mixed up with her father's affairs-a man middle-aged, apparently dry as his own parchments, and quite unversed in society.
