Sunday Morning Scene: Churches of the West: St. Benedict Catholic Church, Roundup Montana

Churches of the West: St. Benedict Catholic Church, Roundup Montana:

This is St. Benedict Catholic Church in Roundup Montana. The church is built in a fairly modern style, although I do not know the year of construction. It's located directly across the street from the Musselshell County Courthouse.

Monday at the Bar: Courthouses of the West: Musselshell County Courthouse, Roundup Montana

Courthouses of the West: Musselshell County Courthouse, Roundup Montana:

This is a not terribly good photograph of the Musselshell County Courthouse in Roundup Montana. This courthouse was built in 1939 and features some art deco styling to it.

I have to admit that I would have liked to have acquired a better photograph of this very nice looking 1930s vintage courthouse, but my mere presence on Main Street taking the photograph was getting
attention, and I was frankly pressed for time. A shame really, as my chances of rephotographing it are slim.

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
