If the case demands it it can have it, but your
duty is plain and simple. You are not to be
merciful toward the prisoner-yoh are TO DC
Just. Justice appeals to your mercy OUTSIDE
OF this case. There is mercy to the commun-
ity; there Is mercy to the dead there Is iier-
cy TO the people that surround you mat
mercy peg OF you 10 snow. Men nave lew
opportunities IN their lives to distinguish
themselves. Mems names go down IN the
stream OF time ana they are iost IN the
end: Not IN hundred years not IN
thousand years, but are finally lost forever.
NO man can hope for immortality on earth
but every man may hope for greater thing.
He may hope that he shall be remembered
