THE FIRST CLIENT.


John Smith, young attorney, just admitted to
the bar,
Was solemn and sagacious as-as young attor-
And }fown Of deep abstraction held the seisin
The result of contemplation of the rule in Shell
leys case.
One day in term time Mr.. Smith was sitting in
the court,
When some good men and true of the body Of
the county did on their oaths report
That, heretofore, to wit, upon the second day OF
May,
A. D. 1871, about the hour of noon, in the county
and State aforesaid, one Joseph Scroggs,
late Of said county, did then and there felo-
niously take, steal and carry away
One bay horse, Of the value of fifty dollars more
or less,
(The same then and there being of the property,
goods and chattels of one Hezekiah Hess)
Contrary to the Statute in such cases expressly
made
And provided, and against the peace and dignity
ofthe State wherein the venue had been laid.
The prisoner, Joseph scroggs, was chen arraign-
ed upon this charge, .
And plead not guilty, and OF this he threw him.
. 3: self upon the country at large; .st.
And said Joseph being poor, the court did gra-
ciously appoint
Mr. Smith to defend himAmuch on the same
principle that obtains in every charity hos
pital, where young medical student is
often sent to rectify a serious injury to an
organ or joint.
The witnesses seemed prejudiced against poor
Mr.. Scroggs
And the District Attorney made thrilling
speech, in which he told the jury that if
- they didn't find for the State he reekoned
he'd have to 'walk their logs
Then Mr.. Smith arose and made his speech for
the defense,
Wherein he quoted Shakespeare, Blackstone,
Chitty, EArchbold, joaquin Miller, Story,
Kent, Tupper, Smedes, Marshall and many
other writers, and everybody said they
''never heard sich bust of eloquence."
And he said: "On this hypothesis my client must
60 free;'
And Again on this hypothesis, it's morally
impossible that he could be guilty, don't
you see?" 49,
And Then. on this hypothesis, you really can't
CONVICT
And so on, with forty-six other hypothesis, upon
none of which, Mr.. Smith ably demOnstra-
ted, could Scroggs be derelict.
But the Jury, never stirring from the box where
in they sat,
Returned verdict of ''guilty ;'rand His Honor
' straightway sentenced Scroggs to three
wears termin the penitentiary, and heavy
fine, and the costs on top of that;
And the prisoner, in wild delight got up and
danced and sung; $50.
And when they asked him the reason OF tins
strange behavior, he said: "1ts because
got off so easy--for if there'd been few
more Of them carned hypothesis. should
certainly have been ng."-Irwin Russell
