EDITOR'S NOTE: The following article is excerpted from an article that appeared in the Dec. 16, 1966, edition of Time magazine.
To City Editor Leo Hirtl of the Cincinnati Post & Times-Star, the rumor that City Solicitor William McClain was in a jam rated a routine check. Since McClain had been seen around probate court the previous week, Hirtl sent a reporter to chat with court officials. The reporter discovered that McClain had appointed a man named William Jackson to appraise a recently settled estate. Jackson, it turned out, was a pseudonym for Norman S. Payne, a probate court employee who got a fee of $100, although he was not entitled to indulge in such moonlighting.
