tomorrow they would take his body,

In the lobby of the st. Charles men

to Drace had meant so much, was not
even known, so accustomed was the
town TO scenes of violence. Drace
asked the clerk If Shottle had come In.
No; his key was in the box. Then
Drace thought that surely Liberty

WIGS WERE MARK OF DISTINCTION
First Worn by Lawyers as Sort Of
Uniform to Distinguish Them
From the Priests.

The law, like every other profession,
was largely in the hands of the church
practically the only educated people,
during the Middle ages. and when lay
pleaders we're first introduced they
wore special kind of head covering,
to distinguish them from their clerical
brethren. This headgear became a
recognized part of the lawyers dress.
When Tin the sixteen hundreds) the
wig was introduced into England from
France, all classes of gentle folk"
adopted the new fashion; courtiers
and doctors, officers and lawyers were
all bewigged. Indeed, the wig was an
essential part of clerical dress. nor
was it officially discontinued as such
till we'll into the last century. With
the conservative legal profession, how
ever, it was still preserved as part Of
the court uniform, and today a bar
rister cannot "be heard" without his
wig-he would be In much the same
position as soldier appearing on
parade Improperly dressed" Not
only are wigs still worn by barristers
and judges--the latter having much
