Notes
Excerpt from a paper by A. D. P. Van Buren on The Pettifoggers of the Pioneer Period http://www.rootsweb.com/~mikalama/obits/pion001.htm#pettifog (Pioneer Society of Michigan from addresses at the pioneer picnic at Galesburg, Kalamazoo Co
September 27, 1883) : "William HARRISON, of Climax, son of the late Judge Bazil Harrison, was a member of the old bar. His practice was before Squires PIERCE and HOLDEN of Climax. He came here in 1830, and is yet living on the old farm where he settled 53 years ago. Willard LOVELL, father of Hons. E. T. and L. W. Lovell, and brother of Hon. Cyrus Lovell, of Ionia, was another member of the old Climax bar. He came here in 1832, died some time in the "forties." He was a mail of 'vigorous intellect, and had the making of an able lawyer in him, but was content to remain a farmer. Isaac Pierce of Climax, so long known as "Squire Pierce," was, in his best days, one of the ablest justices who ever served his township. He was also a member of the Climax bar. He came here in 1838, and died a few years ago. The contests he has had with Major Lovell in the old justice court are well remembered by the early settlers."
"At one time William HARRISON, or "Uncle Billy," as he is commonly called, was pleading his own case against his old neighbor, Seth FLETCHER, before Squire Pierce. In the trial Fletcher claimed an off-set for the amount of one load of lumber. Uncle Billy demanded proof that the lumber was ever delivered to him. HALE, Fletcher's son-in-law, was the counsel on the other side. After Hale bad finished on his part, Billy, stepping forward, said: "Stand aside and let Lawyer Harrison make his plea." This he did in plain, direct words, and so effectually that he gained his case.
"The next day Uncle Billy called on Squire Pierce and asked to see his docket, Turning to his case he requested the Squire to give "old Fletch" credit for twenty-five dollars, the price of a load of lumber. "But," says the Squire, "you did not receive the lumber." "Yes I did," says Billy., "but he did not prove that he delivered it." "Then why didn't you acknowledge its delivery ,at the trial yesterday?" " Ah." says Uncle Billy, 'I was in for the fight then, and it wouldn't do to let up while I had `old Fletch' down, for I wanted to whale the old cuss; so endorse twenty-five dollars as paid; that's fair. He delivered the lumber if lie didn't prove it. Give him credit, that's right."
