Gentlemen of the Jury: A Farce

Gentlemen of the Jury: A Farce is a comedic play by George M. Baker, written in the early 1870s. The story unfolds in a jury room where eccentric jurors debate the guilt of Peleg Popgun, accused of defrauding tax authorities. The play humorously critiques the legal process through the jurors' chaotic deliberations and absurd reasoning, culminating in a satirical twist. This work is notable for its exploration of human nature and the quirks of the judicial system in 19th-century America.
