The first moot trial by jury which has been held at the Law School for forty years took place yesterday afternoon and proved a great success. Professor Smith presided and more than half the Law School was in attendance. The jury were absent two hours before they finally returned a verdict for the plaintiff. The case before the court was a modification of the famous Howland will case.
The court was made up as follows: Judge, Professor Smith. Plaintiff, J. Codman. Defendant, B. L. Hand. Counsel for the plaintiff, T. W. Perkins and R. S. Barlow. Counsel for the defendant, F. R. Bangs and A. N. Hand. Witnesses, A. D. Hill and C. L. Barlow. Expert on handwriting, G. K. Bell. Sheriff, D. R. Vail.
Two similar trials will be held later in the year.
