Boyle I went to the county town, just a few days before Christmas to see lawyer. It was just one of those routine trips a person has to make every so often, in order to clear up a lot of petty, legal matters that we have a habit of letting drift along. The young lady in his office told me to stop over at the courthouse and see him and she gave me a folder of papers to take with tne. He was busy in. Magistrates Court on a ease and asked me to step into the big courtroom and wait for him. The courtroom was emp- ty and I had a good opportunity to oh- serve it in rather minute detail. l.'s- wally when you're in a courtroom the place is full of people. . . those who are concerned with the business at hand and those who come like wolves after a stricken deer because they smell iblood. There's something about a court- room; My experience in them, for which I am duly thankful, has not been great but I can still detect the same- ness in all of them. Perhaps it may be the severity of the place or the .dusty windows. On the other hand it may be the furnishings which look, in most cases, as if they came from a secon d- hand sale such as Noah may have had when he stepped out on dry land and figured he had too much furniture for light house-keeping because his Ark passengers were dashing off. The floor is oiled and rough and pounded by many feet, 'The rough hob- nailed shoes of fanners called to serve jury duty have scraped and scuffled it. The saint and the sinner have all fidg- eted and fumbled bit the hard wooden benches and Omits and rubbed deep into the wood. The whole place has been buffeted, polished and dirtied by 'Wife Preservers` Keep told. tad keep tODxaearfeitbofl4 it _• In the otitis fall mud and spring rain and it has soaked up summer heat and winter cold. Nervous fingers with jacknifes and hairpins and other weapons have etch- ed names and meaningless designs on the oak chair handles and bench backs. A lonely spider, waiting for the Spring Assizes no doubt, was busy on a construction stretching from the light chandelier to the dais on which the judge sat. Even the desk from behind which the judge dispensed justice hadn't es- caped marking. "J. D." has carved deep into the wood and then, like a school- boy, he had marked the whole thing very carefully with ink. Somebody else had drawn a caricature of a man, pos- sibly a lawyer who had nettled justice. That court smelled of people and legal words as dry and dusty and pro- found as could be found anywhere in the world. The room seemed to bear witness to the pleading of accused people and the arrogance of others . of happiness of liberation and the un- happiness of the guilty, It was another courtroom another place of justice.
