EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, published on December 23, 1903, in Puck magazine, offers a whimsical yet insightful representation of the concept of due process of law. The illustration personifies Justice as a regal figure atop a snail, symbolizing the deliberate and often slow-moving nature of the legal system. Justice is adorned with a crown labeled "Law," carrying a sword and scales, the traditional symbols of justice, signifying the balance between fairness and punishment. The steep hill Justice must climb is strewn with boulders labeled "Certificate of Reasonable Doubt," "Appeals," "Change of Venue," "Injunction," and "Stays." These obstacles represent the various challenges and complexities inherent in the legal process. The snail's slow progression up the hill underscores the patience and persistence required for due process to unfold. At the summit, the Hall of Justice awaits, symbolizing the ultimate goal of the legal journey: a fair and just resolution. This illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the intricacies and challenges of the legal process, while maintaining the importance of due process and the pursuit of justice.
