Humorous anecdotes mix mischief and law in old tale
A country man seeks legal aid over a dam dispute with neighbor Jones. A sharp lawyer pushes the case, predicting heavy damages. Other vignettes include a musk scented handkerchief mishap, a dog tossed from a tavern, party chops praise, a ship captain’s prank, a child’s quip about Lees, and a Gloucester hot pie smoke seizure.
