To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Adams, says in his said state- " ment he wrote to Mr. Giles and others. " But it is not admitted that Mr. Webster was com- " prehended or included in the terms of Mr. Adams's " statement. " Mr. Lyman declined to answer the interrogatories of the Solicitor-General, and on November 24, Chief Justice Parker denied the motion for a continuance, and the case was then by consent of counsel assigned ( 58 ) for trial on December 15, when it was postponed un- til December 16. The distinguished character... of the parties, as well as the political considerations attending the case, gave dignity and interest to the trial. A prosecution for criminal libel in which Daniel Webster was the prose- cutor and Theodore Lyman, Jr. , the defendant, and in which charges made by the President of the United States against the most distinguished citizens of Mas- sachusetts were involved, necessarily caused intense public interest. The prosecution, though in form a criminal prosecution by the Commonwealth against Lyman, was in reality a personal and political suit by Webster against Lyman, and was so treated by the public and the press.
