Sketches at the Land League Trials in Dublin, 1881. 'Short-hand Constable: The stalwart constable, who is being cross-examined on his shorthand notes, is one of many such witnesses who, by the ingenuity of Inspector French...have mastered the useful art of phonetic stenography; The benign visage of the Clerk of the Court beams down upon the proceedings; Briefs: Every morning...the bulky brief-bags of the many lawyers engaged are carried in by women, who are popularly known in legal chambers, as in Trinity College, by the brief appellation of 'skips'; C. Molloy - Prosecution; O'Brien L. C.; "Scrab" Nally: Mr. Nally seems to have spent his time between sedition and 'squaring the authorities.' He is a subject of much humour in court, but of little value for or against the traversers who are arraigned, and who will shortly be convicted or acquitted in the cause of Irish Land Leagueism; A Consultation [Mr. Justice Fitzgerald and Mr. Justice Barry];...Mr. John Fox Goodman, 'The Master of the Crown Office,' to whose untiring efforts may be attributed the comfort of the lawyers, the press, and the general public; Mr. Val. Dillon, Solicitor for Defence; Mr. A. M. Sullivan; A cosy corner in the Press Gallery; Inspector French; Above the Jury'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
