Viewing "Memoranda" (1893)."Memoranda" (1893).This article provides a glimpse of how some trial judges operated in the state in the 1890s. The author urged trial judges to prepare and attach memoranda to their orders, explaining their reasoning. Without such a written explanation, the author laments, "Half the time the defeated party does not know and has no means, save asking the judge, of obtaining any knowledge as to which of several points raised and argued on the hearing, was decisive against him."
