Lambert, counsel for the defense, and having received final instructions from Judge Adolph A. Hoehling, the jurors returned to their attic room to balance the scales of justice.

So the jury was "locked up" in a stuffy courthouse dormitory which had only one washstand. On Thanksgiving Day they marched, two by two, under guard, to a turkey dinner...
...weighs 140 pounds. fOne of the last acts of the Wilson Administration was the putting of these lands under the control of the Secretary of the Navy. *According to Mr. Hogan, Japan was threatening to attack Hawaii in 1921, and hence the Doheny oil storage plant was a valuable item in naval defense.
