Court Practice Down South
Col Brins recounts differing southern legal practices in trials from mail robbery to divorce verdicts. He cites a Savannah jury rule that delays decrees if the plaintiff wins first, and notes a judge saying juries are not charged in that jurisdiction. The piece also profiles Theophile Gautier and journalist Paul Bourget on La Presse pay.
