For the uninitiated, Bartleby was a scrivener, a writer, if you will, who worked for a real estate lawyer. Our modern tongues would define his position as &#8216;administrative assistant&#8217;, or &#8216;paralegal.&#8217; And while the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=bellewetherstate.com&#038;blog=8733293&#038;post=619&#038;subd=thebellewetherstate&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
