Not many years ago, the fate of an important case turned upon the
existence of a tombstone: and a forged one was produced in court!--The
validity of a great Peerage case is at this moment depending upon the

This is a step often taken in trials of importance, when the counsel for
either party apprehends danger to his client, from his opponent's
