19d. second = mo, suitable = fit backwards.

Scotch is a 'short' in a pub.
To 'scotch' is to 'decisively put an end to' = 'to stop'

jno

I suppose a short drink could be Scotch... and 'to scotch' something is to stop it...

mac44

19a. a short is a scotch and to stop is to scotch.

19 - Hop-scotch? Hop is a short step? To scotch something is to stop it in its tracks.
