    INFORMATION TO USERS This manuscript has been reproduced from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are reproduced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand comer and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a targe round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

  • Clarence Darrow's Letters
    INTRODUCTION In 1928, H. L. Mencken published an essay in the American Mercury in which he asked, “How many American lawyers are remembered, as lawyers?”1 Thinking only of dead lawyers, Mencken offered three nominees: John Marshall, Daniel Webster, and Joseph Choate. In 1928, these three might have been the only suitable candidates. But anyone answering the same question today would have to include Clarence Darrow on the list (and remove Choate). Darrow, who died in 1938, is the most celebrated lawyer in American history, and he will likely remain so for a long time. The number of books and other writings about Darrow or about the cases in which he was involved is considerable, and steadily increasing. Many adult and juvenile biog- raphies have been written about him; the adult biographies began appearing several years before he died. Dissertations and other academic studies have also been written about him, his cases, and his writings. Most of Darrow’s own books and many of his speeches and other writings have been reprinted several times, and many are anthologized or otherwise in print today—more than seventy years after his death. Many fi ctional char- acters and plots have been based on Darrow or his cases, and Darrow has often been portrayed onstage and on television and in movies (which have played no small part in making him such a celebrated lawyer)—by Spencer Tracy, Orson Welles, Henry Fonda, Jack Lemmon, Christopher Plummer, and Kevin Spacey, among others. 1.

  • Lost Compromise: Reassessing the Early Understanding in Court and Congress on Incorporation of the Bill of Rights in the Fourteenth Amendment
    The Lost Compromise: Reassessing the Early Understanding in Court and Congress on Incorporation of the Bill of Rights in the Fourteenth Amendment BRYAN H. WILDENTHAL* This articleproposes to overturn more than a centry of conventional wisdom regarding the early understanding on whether the Fourteenth Amendment incorporates the Bill of Rights and applies it to the states. The prevailing orthodox view is that Justice Miller's 5-4 majority opinion in the Slaughter- House Cases (1873) rejected incorporation and gutted the Privileges and Immunities Clause. Professor Wildenthal contends, however, that total * Associate Professor of Law, Thomas Jefferson School of Law, San Diego, California. A.B., 1986, J.D., 1989, Stanford University. I dedicate this article with love and admiration to the judge for whom I had the honor of clerking immediately after law school on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, the Honorable Frank Minis Johnson, Jr. (Oct. 30, 1918- July 23, 1999). See generally JACK BASS, TAMING THE STORM: TH1LIFE AND TIMES OF JUDGE FRANK M. JOHNSON, JR.

A towering figure in both American law and the Second Reconstruction of America's South, he became for me, as for his legion of other law clerks, a mentor and friend we will never forgeL Given the historical subject matter of this article, the Judge would have been proud, I know, to share this dedication with his great-grandfather Francis Marion Treadaway, Confederate soldier and Reconstruction-Era Republican Sheriff of Fayette County, Alabama, who courageously battled the Ku Klux Klan and upheld the rule of law when the Fourteenth Amendment was young.
