In this case our friend W. L. Wilson, ESQ.,.
appeared for the first time at this bar before
jury, and, adopting the language of our
nsighbors of the Free Press,
To us the logic seemed conclusive, and as
forensic effort-as piece of oratory, as
work of art almost perfect. We mean exactly
what we say-this speech of our young towns
man exhibited power aud force of which
our county may well be proud, and we pre-
dict ere long Mr.. Wilson will write his name
on the top round of the ladder.
