Odd Tales From an English Past
A collection of humorous anecdotes and courtroom jests from old England recounts a widow scheming to claim an estate by disguising a cobbler as her deceased husband, an incorrigible gambler tricked by a drunken attorney, John Van Buren's sharp rebuke to his father, and Norbury’s jest that altered a death sentence, all recalling a vanished era of wit and law.
