A rugged tale recounts Deacon Hardwicke surviving a highway robbery near a canyon grade en route to a Southern California hotel. After returning fire and later foiling a club-room heist, he aids a wounded thief, and the pair discuss burial and a letter to the man’s parents.
Phair sues Minnesota state authorities after being attacked by a protected moose while hunting. He argues the moose as ward of the state prevented him from defending himself and seeks damages for injuries. The Chicago News notes the case may reach Minnesota courts.
A New York Herald report details how Central Park mounted police maintain control of runaways in drives and bridle paths. Sergeant Egan asserts his riders’ skill, showing a demonstration with Baldwin and the horse Harry to prove their system works, noting the horses’ quick sensing of rapid movement and the disciplined pace regulations within the park.
A Chicago Times Herald anecdote recalls M D Hardin recounting how Abraham Lincoln helped two lawyers in a major state and national case. The colleagues billed 5000 dollars, but Lincoln suggested about 50 dollars for his day of work, calling it fair pay.
A crowded drawing room at a western lawyers reception under President Tyler era yields a spectacle as Leonard, with Stanberry and Webster nearby, topples a fragile chair.
