ALSO CITY OFFICERS IN BOSTON, AND OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION. BOSTON: PUBLISHED BY JAMES LORING, 13 2 Washington Street. ECLIPSES IN 1839. 1. The first will be a great and total eclipse, on Friday March 15th, at 9h. 28m. morning, but by reason of the moon's south latitude, her shadow will not touch any part of North America. The course of the general eclipse will be from southwest to north- east, from the Pacific Ocean a little west of Chili to the Arabian Gulf and southeastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. The termination of this grand and sublime phenomenon will probably be witnessed from the summit of some of those stupendous monuments of ancient industry and folly, the vast and lofty pyramids on the banks of the Nile in lower Egypt. The principal cities and places that will be to- tally shadowed in this eclipse, are Valparaiso, Mendoza, Cordova, Assumption, St. Salvador and Pernambuco, in South America, and Sierra Leone, Teemboo, Tombucto and Fezzan, in Africa. At each of these places the duration of total darkness will be from one to six minutes, and several of the planets and fixed stars will probably be visible. 2. The other will also be a grand and beautiful eclipse, on Satur- day, September 7th, at 5h. 35m. evening, but on account of the Mnon's low latitude, and happening so late in the afternoon, no part of it will be visible in North America. -

INDIANA LAW REVIEW [Vol
. A Short History of Hearsay Reform, with Particular Reference to Hoffman v. Palmer, Eddie Morgan and Jerry Frank Michael Ariens* "Few historians, however, hold themselves out as fictionists." Jerome Frank, The Place ofthe Expert in a Democratic Society 1 True, no man can be wholly apart from his fellows. But, if each of us is a promontory, yet the promontory reaches out beyond the social mainland to a point where others cannot intrude. ... It is a no-other-man's land, for others can't penetrate it, can't communicate with it. Jerome Frank, Judge Learned Hand1 Introduction On my summer vacation, I chanced upon the novel Foe by the South African writer 3 J.M. Coetzee. Foe is a modern reworking of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. In this modern retelling, Coetzee presents the story of the relation of author and subject, not the story of the adventures of a shipwrecked Englishman. In Foe, the authorial voice is that of Susan Barton, a castaway who ended up on the same island as Cruso and Friday. She, Cruso and Friday are "rescued" and taken by ship to England. En route, Cruso dies. Once in London, Susan Barton takes her story of Cruso and Friday to Daniel Foe, and finds that his interest is more in the story of her life and less in the story of Cruso 's adventures. Foe, chased by creditors, flees his house, into which Barton and Friday move. Barton later leaves, searching for Foe, whom she finally tracks down. Confronting Foe, 4 she says, "I am not a story, Mr. -

THE APPOINTMENT OF SUPREME COURT JUSTICES: PRESTIGE, PRINCIPLES AND POLITICS* JOHN P. FRANK Hidden in musty obscurity behind the forbidding covers of three hundred and more volumes of court reports, the Justices of the United States Supreme Court seldom emerge into public view. Deaths and retirements, new appointments, and occasional opinions attract fleeting attention; all else is unnoticed. But to the political scientist, to the historian, and, above all, to the lawyer, the Supreme Court is an object of vital concern. To the political scientist, the Court matters because it is the chief juggler in maintaining the Balance of Powers. To the historian, the Court matters because of its tre- mendous influence on the policies of federal and state governments. -

Chief Justice John Appleton (1804-1891) DAVID M . GOLD CHIEF JUSTICE JOHN APPLETON At a banquet celebrating the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Maine Historical Society, one of the speakers, George F. Talbot, expressed his desire someday to see biographies of two of Maine’s most eminent public figures, William Pitt Fessenden and John Appleton.1 The fame of Fessenden, Civil War senator and secretary of the treasury under Lincoln, has been revived in recent years because of his key role in Reconstruction politics. Appleton, however, remains relatively unknown; the only substantial essay on him is now more than seventy years old.2 An ardent legal reformer, Appleton served with distinction for thirty-one years on the Supreme Judicial Court of Maine, published many articles in leading law journals attacking anachronistic and unjust rules of evidence, and gained renown for his successful struggle to make the accused in a criminal case competent to testify in his own behalf. -

WAIVER OF THE CRIMINAL DEFENDANT'S RIGHT TO TESTIFY: CONSTITUTIONAL IMPLICATIONS INTRODUCTION Although the Constitution does not explicitly grant a criminal defend- ant a right to testify on his own behalf, the Supreme Court expressly held, in 1987, that such a right does exist.' Since this decision, federal courts have disagreed over how a criminal defendant waives his constitu- tional right to testify.2 All the federal appellate courts addressing this issue have held that the right to testify is a personal and fundamental constitutional right.3 Furthermore, all agree that only a "knowing, vol- untary and intelligent"4 waiver by the defendant himself5 is sufficient to relinquish this right.6 The courts, however, differ in their application of this standard. Under one approach to the waiver of the criminal defendant's constitu- tional right to testify-the silent record approach-an appellate court looks only to the trial record to determine if there was a valid waiver of this right. -

COMPILED BY ISAAC APPLETON JEWETT. u < • ¦ BOSTON: & MDCCCL. ,^ -' / CAMBRIDGE : PRINTED BY BOLLES AND HOUGIITON. iS <i," PREFACE. The folio-wing sketches of the family are thought worthy to be presented to the numerous descendants of Samuel Appleton. They have been collected by the late John S. Appleton of Salem, the late Eben Appleton, during a residence in England, and by Nathan Appleton of Boston, with whom they were deposited, and who has made some additions to them. They have appeared sufficiently valuable to be pre served in print. They may be considered of some interest in connection with the event so important in its results, the first settlement of New England. The genealogical history ofthe family goes back to an early period, and may be looked upon as somewhat remark able for a uniformity inthe character of the individuals embraced init. Without being sufficiently distinguished to fillany place ingeneral history, its members, so far as known, seem to have been respectable, and to have performed the part of good and useful citizens. -

DESMOND THE ATTEMPT TO REPEAL MAINE’S PERSONAL LIBERTY LAWS Many issues divided the nation before the Civil War. One in particular involved the passage of Per sonal Liberty laws in the northern states, which circum scribed the conduct of officials handlingfugitive slaves. While Maine was not a prominent destination for runaway slaves, its Personal Liberty laws, redrafted in 1857 by the state's new Republican majority, were particularly forceful and therefore particularly odious to Southern planters. As the secession crisis loomed, Maine reconsidered the constitutionality of the laws and their political expediency: Would the state bend to the needs of national reconciliation? Mr. Desmond, born in Island Falls, Maine, received M.A. degrees in education (1979) and History (1991) from the Uni versity of Maine and taught for twelve years in Maine public schools.
