Goop and Courtroom Tales from a Bygone Era
A lively compilation of courtroom anecdotes, odd witness exchanges, and social notices. The piece recounts a judge’s laughter at cross examination, a clever Boston publisher’s memory tale, a mock legal quip about divorce laws, regional chatter, and a farmer’s tip on preventing wheat smut using copper sulfate. It also notes slave trade statistics and emancipation in Cincinnati.
