Unusual Grog Bill Defense in Coyle Suit
Bryan Collins of the Twelfth ward offers a drunkenness based defense in a dispute with Store keeper Henry Coyle over a 135 debt plus ten years’ interest on a judgement note. He claims the note signed June 7, 1888 was for whisky and provisions not groceries and that he was fraudulently induced to renew it. Judge Archbald issued a rule to show cause why the judgment should not be opened and the sale was stayed pending argument court.
