While Marion Thede included this tune in her book, she stated that she didn't fancy it as a fiddle tune. She said that it "doesn't note right".
In other words, none of the characteristics of a fiddle tune could be applied to it.

Between the years 1875 and 1896 it is said that 164 men were sentenced to the gallows by Judge Isaac Parker of Fort Smith, Arkansas. As US
District Judge, his jurisdiction extended over a part of Arkansas and about 70,000 square miles of untamed land to the West, including the
Indian territory of what is now Oklahoma. His was the only court until 1889, when it became possible to appeal to the US Supreme Court. During
Judge Parker - Billy Foust
With typical buffonery, fiddlers started a comical tune called "Judge Parker."

I suspect this tune is a little doodle on some of the themes from Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag.
The grace notes at the beginning of measures 10, 12 and 16 should be triplets. For measures 10 & 12, it should be D-E-F# leading up to the A.
In measure 16, it should be E-F#-G# leading up to A.

Once again, the grace notes in measures 11 and 15 should be triplets. Each is a triplet run from the open D up to G.

In measure 31, there are grace notes attached to the end of the final B. Elsewhere in these tabledit arrangements, I have moved such post grace
notes to the beginning of the next note. In this case the next note is an open E and the grace notes are on the A string, so it is impossible
to assign them to the E. The graces notes are C#-B.

The grace notes at the beginning of measure 11 should be a triplet, B-C#-B, then down to the open A. It is almost like a turn in Irish fiddle
