Courtroom hears testament on legality and whiskey

In a North Carolina session Representative Small cited a trial for larceny where the sanity of a prisoner was questioned. The prosecutor asked if the man could tell right from wrong, and a witness quipped that after drinking whisky at Bill Skinner's bar he did say it was powerful good. The barroom comment drew laughs as the line of inquiry proceeded.

A garbled page segment shows quirky quotes about marriage and a local option poll. The text mentions prohibition talk, domestic snatches of slang, and product names like Lambs Linoleum Cream. It reads as a faded advertisement and miscellaneous notes with odd spellings and partial phrases.
