Your petitioner. writer Of r.
cord. author Of THE Lunacy Law Of
the World on file in various law H.
| Dlaries in tho United States. among
others that or the Supreme Court Of
( the United States, n critique OF which
/ work by leading Law Reviews of the

.
| court for the impeachment for NAL
1easance In office in refusing TO obey
the mandate of the United States Cir
! cut Court OF Appeals for the South
( ern District OF New York. his APPEL
late Court. for malfeasance in Office
/ upon the part OF George c. Holt. Judge
OF the United States District Court for
the Southern District OF New York:
I whereby your petitioner suffered griev-
GUS wrong. grave financial injury, and
the deterring OF the trial of his case
! OF Chaloner against Sherman Con the
docket of said United States District
CourD for from TWO to three years
there or thereabouts.
The object OF tho present impeach-
ment proceedings is purely and solely
the practical one OF procuring a new
trial of said cause OF Chaloncr against
Sherman without undue delay. since
said Judge Holt-for reasons best
known to himself-prevente said trial
by ordering said cause out OF his said
United states District Court and Into
the Supreme Court OF the State OF New
york. and this In the teeth OF a de-
cision by his Appellate Court, namely.
the United States Circuit Court OF Ap-
peals for the Southern District of New
YORK, In said case of Chaloner against
sherman handed down. so FAR back
as 1905 in which said decislon the
learned United states Circuit Court OF
Appeals held that your petitioner had
constitutional r. ght to bring said &C
ton OF Chaloner against Sherman IN
i Federal Court. your petitioner being
citizen at said time OF the State Of
. virginia (now a citizen OF the State
OF North Carolina. doing business, with
4 a business residence. in the state OF
4 Nirginia). while said Thomas T. Sher-
man. the falsely alleged committee Of
lf t1...
q citizen of the state OF New York. and
the sum IN sy-namelv your
petitioners entire property being at
least two thousand dollars being IN
Tact a million and a half-w-~ongfully
withheld from Your petitioner by said
sherman. by virtue OF an illegal and
void decree Of the Supreme Court OF
New York In 1899, being part Of pro-
eeed.ngs In sad same New York Su-
preme Court under date 1897. equally
ileSal and void for want OF Jurisdic-
ton over the person and property OF
your petitioner; owing not only to
the fact that your petitioner was at
said time n citizen of the State OF
Virginia. but to the fact that said
1899 proceedings and said 1897 were
rotten with conspiracy. fraud. per-
fury, and felony
II is not the intention OF your pc
titioner 10 take up the time of this
learned court eXpatiatlng upon what
he intends 10 prove. Nor s II the In
tention OF your petitioner to attempt
TO compete In argument with the aug
/ ust tribunal that decided the law that
should govern the conduct of said case
OF Chaloner against Sherman in the
court below; namely the United States
Circuit Court OF Appeals. aforesaid:
Judges Lacombe. Coke. and Noyes. all
sitting, and said opinion being writ
ten by Judge Moves. MI con-
