Fayette County Supper Sparks Courtroom Tale of West Union
An 1858 Fayette County court session in West Union featured a lively supper at the Stet House hosted by James Irvin. Chickasaw travelers, tired from a night ride to McGregor, joined the meal and allowed lingering lawyers, including Murdock and others from Mayetta County, to settle bills. The evening erupted with toasts and laughter, drawing attention to the district court and its leaders while senators Allison, Sherman, Morrill, and Jones are noted for long service and influence in Washington.
