"reminiscences of Prosecuting Attorney
By SCOTT NJ LoFTIN County Solicitor Escambia County

| The state was not able TO make out
the case as strongly as desired, and II
the defendant had taken the stand and
denied the material parts of the states
evidence, it is very probably that the
Jury would have acquired him, but in
his zeal to establish his innocence be-
yond the shadow of a doubt. he sub
mitted to the jury an alleged agree
ment in writing, signed by himself and
purporting TO have been signed by his
accomplish, who at this time was in
sane, which agreement, if genuine, es-
tablished his innocence beyond ques-
ton. The insane accomplice could not,
of course, be summoned by the state
to, deny his signature to the writing,
and We had practically given up hope
of securing a conviction. although we
were satisfied the writing was not
genuine. but had no way of proving it.
The argument Of counsel was in course
Of progress when one Of the officers of
the bank discovered that the letter
head upon which the alleged agree
ment was written was one Of an order
Of stationery for the bank that had
not been ordered and printed until
about thirty days after the date which
the agreement bore, and upon request
and a showing dde to the court, the
state was permitted TO reopen the case
the printer and others showing this
fact, and as a result it only took the
jury a few minutes to deliberate and
return a verdict of guilty.
Threats Are Frequent.
Frequently I have had persons come
and inform me that some criminal
whom I had prosecuted had threatened
to do me some serious injury as soon
as he was released from prison, but I
have never paid any attention to such
threats and never have 1 known of
there being an attempt to carry them
into execution.
While a prosecuting attorney is
sworn to enforce the law and must do
his duty, against friend and foe alike.
yet there are times when for mo-
ment one is tempted to shun his duty,
for so often it is the wife and children,
or the broken hearted mother, who
must endure and suffer even greater
punishment than is meted out to the
guilty man and their tears and weep
ing will weaken the strongest, but
duty is supreme and order and har-
mony must reign, and to that end the
law must be enforced and the guilty
brought to justice.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1911-12-10

onment, but as rule there is a GER
tain honor among thieves and it is
not often that one will testify against
his accomplish, even to benefit himself.
A defendant is not compelled TO take
the witness stand unless he does so
voluntarily in his own behalf, and I'M
less the case is such one as abso-
luteIy demands an explanation from
him, or unless he is afraid of cross
examination, he will not testify. Oc-
casionally we have a man who is so
sure of himself and his ability to con-
vince the jury of his innocence that
he will avail himself of his privilege
and testify at great length, frequently
damaging his case by talking too
much.
A Case of Over Confidence.
In case which ] was prosecuting,
a very shrewd and educated man was
charged with completely in defrauding
bank out of large sum of money.
