Diary of Orville Hickman Browning, Friday, July 13, 1860

Chicago. The Kingsbury case was argued to day by Mr Kales for Pltf, and by Judge Scates & myself for Deft. We were limited to an hour and a half each, but Judge Scates gave me 10 minutes of his time, so I had an hour & 40 minutes. I closed a little after 3 P. M. and Dick Merrick who is to conclude for the Pltf said he was sick, and begged the Court to give him till tomorrow, which was done.

Has been a beautiful day
