Cornelius Possom "Grilled" At Old Tyme Days

By JIM NIGRO

It was billed as the trial of the century in West Jackson Corners as Cornelius Possum was brought up on various charges, including sleeping in church.  Cornelius is a notorious ne’er –do– well and his disruptive antics are the stuff of legend in West Jackson Corners.

A record number of visitors poured into the tiny village to enjoy the day’s events, beginning the annual town meeting– where charges were brought against and Cornelius and his co-defendant, the “village bum” After famous trial lawyer “J. Boliver Shagnasty” arrived on the scene, a jury was selected and the stage was set. 

The “legal” proceedings were framed by a plethora of activities ranging from horse rides, guided tours, games, food and demonstrations of life from a bygone era. Here are a few photos of yesterday’s event.
