"We are sure living in a peculiar time.
You get more for not working than you will for working,
and more for not raising a hog than for raising it."
-- Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist

Will Rogers plays the lead roll, that of Judge William "Billy" Priest in a very patriotic (Confederate) southern town...
Judge Priest depicts life in Kentucky after the Civil War and Reconstruction Period.
It shows the stereotypes and prejudices which existed at that time in a somewhat humorous manner.
Based on a story by the noted Kentucky humorist, Irvin S. Cobb, it presents life as one would have imagined it at that time period.
