Title

DeWitt County Judge's Docket

Description

Originally begun as a Fee Bill Execution Docket for DeWitt County, Illinois, the book only contains one page for that purpose.The balance of the docket book is used as the Judge's Docket for the Circuit Court of DeWitt County for the October Term 1855 to the Spring Term 1860. The "Execution Docket" book contains approximately 260 unnumbered pages. Bound in original marbled boards, with leather spine and corners, the book's pages are lined wove paper, lightly ruled into sections in pencil, with entries in numerous hands, including Lincoln's. Most of these entries are in ink; but a few scattered ones are in pencil. As may be expected with a long and much-used book, the covers are well-worn, scuffed, and nearly detached, with portions of the top and bottom spine missing.
