THE MAN WITH THE WOODEN SPECTACLES The trial of the man apprehended with a crimson hatbox containing a skull continues with the shenanigans of the Moffit brothers, Silas and Saul, trying to thwart the efforts of Elsa Colby, the young defense lawyer who must win her first case—or it’ll be her last case! Elsa finds herself visiting the darkest parts of Chicago in her quest to prove that when her client told the archbishop that the box contained “Wah Lee’s skull”, he didn’t know that there actually was a skull in the box. This tale by webwork master Harry Stephen Keeler is every bit as confusing as it sounds! |
