Colonel Starbottle's Client

Another classic converted by eBooksLib.com.

«It may be remembered that it was the habit of that gallant «war- horse» of the Calaveras democracy, Colonel Starbottle, at the close of a political campaign, to return to his original profession of the Law. Perhaps it could not be called a peaceful retirement. The same fiery-tongued eloquence and full-breasted chivalry which had in turns thrilled and overawed freemen at the polls were no less fervid and embattled before a jury.»
