Five Dollars and Costs at Recorder Thorndyke's Court
A humorous yet factual sketch details the typical costs of a minor arrest and trial. It explains the sum of five dollars plus costs, docket fees, and added fines, culminating in a total around four dollars. The piece notes how prisoners pay, via the city treasurer, and mentions possible alternatives like labor or reprimands. It ends with an endorsement for Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy sold by Jackson's Pharmacy.
