Description
Louisville: Bradley & Gilbert, 1880. Original printed front title wrapper. 63, [1 blank] pp. Disbound a bit crudely but text is clean. Two rubberstamps on wrapper. Good+. Thomas Hargis, an attorney and Confederate veteran who had been wounded three times during the War, sought election to the office of circuit judge of Kentucky. Thomas Green, Editor of the Maysville Eagle, claimed that Hargis had not practiced law for the requisite number of years, and that he had illegally altered official records to conceal the date of his admission to the Bar. Hargis called Green a liar; in response, Green then sued Hargis for libel. The jury quickly reached a verdict in Hargis's favor. See the June 14, 1879 issue of 'The Age', pages 327-329 [Louisville: 1879] for a further elaboration of the widely publicized case. Wadsworth's closing argument, printed here, is "an extraordinarily strong statement of Mr. Green's side of this remarkable case." [Louisville Medical News, page 18, issue of July 10, 1880]. OCLC 8447611 [5- Rutgers and four in Kentucky] as of February 2018. Not in Harv. Law Cat. or Marke.
