prosecutions the tho theae ac ceded shall enjoy the right of a and public tri trl trial triai albyan by an impart ejary or districts district 1 where the crime shall have been committed that he shall bo informed of the cause and nature natura of the accusation against him thac that he shall bo be confronted with the witnesses against him that he shall ahall have compulsory process to 0 obtain b in his favor and that he shall havo have the assistance of counsel in hla hia defense these provisions are intended for the protection of the innocent from injustice and oppression and it was only by their faithful observance that guilt gulit or innocence could be fairly ascertained tal tai ried every accused person was presumed to bo be innocent until the accusation was proved with what difficulty and trouble the law had been deen administered in the present case the jurors had been daily witnesses it wags wasy was wag however a consolation to think that not one of those sacred guarantees of the constitution ution had been violated in the person of the accused before proceeding further he wished to notice an incident which had taken place pending the recent argument the prisoner had bad frequently taken occa occasion gien glen to proclaim to the public that opinion rs is evinced by press and correspondence was in his favor these declarations could not be prevented except by a process of gagging the prisoner any suggestion that the jury could be he influenced fluen ced by such lawless jawless chattering of the prisoner would have seemed to him absurd and he should have felt h he was insulting the intelligence of if he had warned them not tore to regard tard it counsel for the pos prosecution had felt it a necessity however in the final argument to interpose the contradiction to such statements and exceptions had been taken on the part of the accused to the form in which that effort was made for the purpose of purging the tile record of any objectionable matter he should mu simply p ly say that anything which had been bien said on either elther alde aide in reference to public excitement or to newspaper opinion was not to be regarded regard edby by the jury to establish murder it had bad to be proved roved first that death was waa caused ry by the act af accused and fur therit was caused with malico aforethought that did not mean however that government had to prove any III ill will or hatred on the part the accused toward the deceased wherever homi homicide cido was shown to have been committed without lawful und una wlm wim intent it was sufficiently proved to have been done with malice afore aforethought though t and malice was not disproved by showing that the accused had no personal ill III will towards the deceased and that he killed from other motives the jury would have to say that the defendant de was guilty of murder or innocent in order to constitute the crime of murder the assassin must have a reasonably sane mind in technical terms he must be of sound bound mind memory and discretion any asane man could not commit murder if he was laboring labo labs ring under disease of the mental faculties to such stich an extent that he did not know what he was doing or knew it was wrong then hu ho was wanting in that sound mind memory and discretion that was part of the definition of murder ev every ry defendant was presumed t to 0 be innocent until the accusation cusa tion against him was established by proof notwithstanding this p presumption resumption of inno innocence enee ence it was eq equally aily ally true that defendant was presumed to be sane and to have been so at the time the crime was committed the burden of proof as to insanity was on the de defense fenee if the jury

however must bo be sincere and fortified by proofs and testimony the iury jury should bo be reasonably and morally certain of the facts which they declared to be their verdict there thero was vas no que tion about the the shot its pro dueing death and p povl ovidia din the tile defendant was capable of criminal intent or a maniac of its malice aforethought the prisoners own hanu hand has writ

belew it if ani rosity were established the jury was waa not to infer that the prisoner was insane because lie committed this enormous crime the only bafo safo rule was for the jury to direct its attention to ono one test of criminal responsibility namely whether the prisoner pos fos possessed mental capacity qt at the timo it ie e act wa committed to td know that it was wrong or whether he was deprived of that til at capacity by mental disease there was one important distinction which the jury must not lose sight eight of and they must decide how far it was applicable to this case that was the distinction between mental and moral obliquity between mental incapacity to distinguish between bot een right and wrong and moral insensibility to that distinction and now gentlemen to sum up all I 1 have bald said to you if you find from the whole aholo evidence that at tile the time of the commis commission siou of the h homicide 0 the prisoner was laboring under such defect of his reason that ho lie was incapable of understanding what he was doing or of seeing that it was a wrong thing to do aa as for example if he be was under the insana 3 delusion that the almighty had commanded him to do the act then be he was not in a responsible condition of mind but was an object of compassion and should be now acquitted if on the other hand band you find he be was under no insane elusion but had possession of his faculties and had power to know his act was wrong and if of his own free will he deliberately conceived the idea and executed the homicide then whether his motive were personal vindictiveness political animosity desire to aven avenge ge su supposed political wrongs or a corb morbid desire for notoriety or if you are unable to discover dib die cover r any motive at all the act Is simply murder and it is your duty to find a verdict of guilty as indicated or after the suggestion from scoville to that effect you nind find the prisoner is not guilty by reason of insanity it is your duty tobay to bay say so you will now retire to your room and consider your verdict during the delivery of tl e judges eli cli charge arge which was completed d at pru
