might re discarded and the circumstances

Gentlemen of the jury
Out Of an abundance OF cause / desire
| to talk with you awhile about what I
consider are the important and material
issues in the Iammentable crime. That
there should be necessity for a trial
life this. I. as citizen regret but cut
of much bad some good may come Pos
sibly that good may be that it viii be
a lesson 10 the younger and inexperienced
that a life of shame led by these people
only shows the consequence which must
necessarily follow I don't believe that
the publication of all this testimony in
the press of this city is justifyable.
do not believe it is to any good purpose.
Gentlemen, when before did the walls OF
this court house or any other court house
echo with the character of testimony in
troduced by the state. whenever did the
state ask conviction on the character of
the testimony We find here"
What is the object of this trial? Not
to convict and. / will be equally frank
to say its object is not acquittaI. but 70
ascertain the truth of the case as near
as possible
Mr. Comfy said that the witnesses on
whom they must rely come from the low
est and most degraded specimens OF
humanity While j do not share their
conclusion 1 do condemn the state Wit
nesses. oh, think of it. gentlemen: Has
life and liberty become so cheap that a
lot of degraded wretches which the state
has produced can take away the liberty
of this man who is entitled to the pro-
lection of the law.
Despecable as she is / am tempted 70
say word in defense of Inez Miller
l want to say to you, one of the most
horrible pictures that can be shown on
the face of the earth is a. woman who
might have been representative of the
glorious womanhood to become a debased
degraded creature as she is But want
to say to you, she stands much higher
and in any judgment she will on the
last great day will fare better than the
low down man like Flynn who lived off
of her sins.
The law says you have right to con-
slider the character of the man. The evil
denee seems TO me is conclusive as TO
what occurred at the Royal That Flynn
contemplated.
The spoke Of the witnesses we pro-
duced to prove Flynn's character. Could
We go into the prominent business circles
or Y NJ. c. A? No, we had to go where
his associates were on south fremont
street and gambling houses"
Judge Wall also reviewed the case and
the testimony and pointed cut the places
which lead to the theory OF self defense.
He also questioned the right to dispute
the testimony of Geo. Wiley. Bennett and
Gardner He said he had known some
excellent hack drivers, others who wore
scalawags- He also asked IL there was
any doubt that Flynn wen. in to Inez
Miller and got hts gun. He also spoke
Of Flynns character and life as he
claimed was shown by the evidence and
also Inez Miller's motive for revenge on
Balm
In conclusion he said
Gentlemen Of the jury: l only ask you
TO do unto Balm az You would have him
do unto you. were you in his circum-
stances, If You do this you viii be acting
according To the laws of your state. 1t

At the opening of the afternoon session
Judge Wilson gave his Instructions to the
jury describing the different class which
might apply to the case, and what con-
stituted each, first or second degree muir
der; first, second third and fourth de-
gree manslaughter and self defense,
cautioning them to be positive beyond a
doubt when they rendered their decision
Immediately following the instructions
James Comfy arose and made the opening
argument for the state He touched all
Eases of the case and also as to the truth
of the witnesses of both the state and
the defense. Gentlemen of the jury
while defending the rights of the defend
ant said Mr. Comfy. lit is also your
right to defend the rights of the state
The state IS in no way responsible for
your verdict. What the state has en-
deavored to do is to present the testimony
and when they have done that they have
done their duty. 1t stands with the jurors
time and time again what the reputation
of the community shall be
1T IS unfortunate in this case that most
OF the witnesses for both the defense and
state come from a class that under or
binary circumstances one would be 10th
to believe. From out the very depths of
depravity comes most of this testimony
A place where respectable would feel
ashamed to be found under any circum-
stances and William Flynn is found dead
there and Balm accused OF the murder
The state sought 10 introduce testi-
