Deaf Witness Talks Saloons as Poor Farm Petition
J M Morrison, past 80 and very deaf, testifies in a consent hearing and says he signed what he was told was a petition to benefit the poor farm, not for saloons. Attorneys shout to be heard as Morrison explains he could not read and was misled by two men on Sycamora Street. The scene blends temperance talk with courtroom mirth as Morrison recalls signing and later withdrawing.
