 Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., the United States Supreme Court justice, did not share Wigmore's high regard for Doe.Writing to thank Wigmore in 1910 when the latter dedicated his "Pocket Code of Evidence" to Holmes, Holmes wrote, I never quite understood your predilection for Doe.He seemed to me to write longwinded rather second rate discourses... at all events I thought there was not a great deal of brandy in his water.
