This volume collects accounts of two trials in which Daniel Webster served as a defense attorney. Jackman's Sham-Robbery is a detailed account, by one of the accused, of one of the trials connected with this Massachusetts case, one of the most famous cases of its day. The respected and well-connected Major Goodridge's accusation of robbery against the witless, low-life Kenniston brothers was supported by popular sentiment, until Webster began his defense, which meticulously unraveled the major's story and led to an acquittal. The trial was a landmark in Webster's legal career, and his final address to the jury, first printed here, is considered a classic example of his oratorical skill. The Powers case involved a fatal encounter in Boston. As McDade notes: "Even the great Daniel Webster could not save Powers, who was condemned for killing Kennedy.

First Edition. First edition, 12mo, pp. 151, [1]; original drab paper wrappers, some staining; spine partially perished; paper toned; otherwise good and sound. A full account of the crimes and trial of Elijah Putnam Goodridge (1787-1851), compiled by Joseph Jackman, a tavern owner whom Goodridge framed for theft. On the night of December 19, 1816, Goodridge, who claimed to be traveling from Bangor to Boston, staged his own robbery on the roadside. The performance included shooting his own hand and slicing himself with a razor. He framed two brothers, Levi and Laban Kenniston, Jackman, and the innkeeper Ebenezor Pearson. Goodridge's crimes were exposed during trial and his victims were ruled not guilty. The attorney for the defense was Daniel Webster (1782-1852), who would later serve as Secretary of State. Goodridge was later hanged by a mob in Newburyport. American Imprints 48361; Sabin 27930.
