[Ads-l] Honoring Wrongful Conviction Day

[George Thompson]

I received an email with this header from the Legal Aid Society of NYC --
an organizationnwhich I contribute to.
Somehow, though, the heading seems ill-phrased.  Should I honor the day by
helping to convict someone wrongfully?
Perhaps "observing"?  Or just "Wrongful Conviction Day"?

But when aroused at the Trump of Doom / Ye shall start, bold kings, from
your lowly tomb. . .
L. H. Sigourney, "Burial of Mazeen", Poems.  Boston, 1827, p. 112

The Trump of Doom -- also known as The Dunghill Toadstool.  (Here's a
picture of his great-grandfather.)
