The Criminal Witness and a Childlike Innocence
In spring 1848 at Jackson I defend a young man accused of robbing the mail. He admits alibi with a drunken party, while a separate trial reveals Elizabeth Mudworth accused of stealing a hundred dollars from her mistress Mrs Naseby. A scheming cook Nancy Luther emerges as a suspect. I retrieve letters from the prosecuting attorney to aid the defense and protect the innocent girl awaiting trial.
