Mr.. Charles NJ. Lee was a well
known criminal lawyer of Rochester,
y. Y. He summed up a case with a
pcrspiration that would have astonish-
ed even John Graham i'm his vehement
and melting moods. Lee was defend
ing an old revolutionary soldier fol
passing q forged promissory note for
thirty dollars. There was hardly the
faiutest doubt of the guilt; but Lee
contrived to get before the jury the fact
that the prisoner, then a daredevil
boy OF nineteen, was one of the storm
ing party that followed Mr.. Anthony
Wayne, i'm his desperate night assault
upon Stony Point, and helped to carry
the wounded General into the fort dur
ing that terrible fray. In summing up
Lee, after getting over the ugly points
Of the evidence as he best could, then
undertook to carry the jury by escalade
on the ground o. his revolutionary
services. He described in graphic
language the bloody attack on Stony
Point. the impetuous valOr of Wayne,
the daring exploit OF his client, and

This was a poser. The chius of some
of the jury quivered, but the foreman
a bluff farmer, put on an air which
seemed TO say, that storming Stony
Point was a good thing enough in its
line, but what had il To do with pass
ing this forged note? After being out
n couple of hours, the jury returned TO
the court room, when the clerk went
through the usual formula:
Gentlemen of the jury, have you
agreed upon verdict ,"

" DO you find the prisoner at the bar
