State Opens Final
Argument at Noon.

Solicitor General Hugh NJ. Dorsey
began the final argument for the state
at ~ o'clock, having one and one half
hours to speak. 1t was announced that
the jury would be charged Immediately
after Mr. Dorsey closed. They would
retire for a verdict. which might come
at any moment after that.
"Circumstantial evidence is just as
convincing, just as strong, as direct
evidence" he SAID. Except that
through excess of precaution, circum-
stantial evidence is hedged about with
certain restrictions" He read several
citations to show this
The law doesn't require mathemati-
cal certainty, but only reasonable and
moral certainty" he said. 1T is only
necessary to convince the jurors, be-
yond a reasonable doubt, that the de-
PENDANT is guilty
IF the evidence does exclude every
other circumstance beyond the guilt
of the defendant, it is the duty of the
jury 20 convict.
II you don't believe she is guilty
beyond reasonable doubt, turn her
loose. l won't you to do it.
But the rule is not, say authorities,
that there must be an acquittal in all
cases of doubt. since there are no cases
without some doubt There must be
solemn and substantial doubt grave

The basic rule of criminal law is
reasonable doubt There is no defni-
ton Of reasonable doubt, Every one
knows what it means

Mr.. Dorsey again. He may have been

you know when Grace introduced that
woman into his family he must have

a good and true wife, even as he was d

the facts of the shooting her story was

court He described the fight in the
Grace home and showed that proof Of
the bruises on her throat had been
given by DR. Green, the county physi-
clan. He hurriedly reviewed the evil
dence to show that Grace was we'll and
unwounded at II o'clock. He paid a
compliment to Rebecca Sans, the neer1

case.
IF you are going to reach a verdict
by evidence and not by the closing
speech of abuse by the solicitor-and
that is all they have--you must con-
slider this fact. Grace was not shot in
the morning, and on that rests the
states whole case. They have utterly
failed to show motives, they have ut
terly failed to show time!
IF there is anything in the world
that the earmarks of the case shows, it
is that it was not premeditated plan
1t has not one earmark of such q plot
The state has tried to impress you
by trying to prove things and falling
down, and knowing that they would
fall down, they have tried to make you
believe this woman tempered with the
telephone. Bob Woods swore he found
Grace with the phone in his hand. Dor
sett sWore the phone was sitting on
the floor, They said Grace saw them
over the transom and told them how to
get in. Does that look like he was
drugged?
They say she tempered with the
phone, and what is their proof? On the
Sth day of March three days later
Woods found a crumpled night cap and
pieces Of newspaper scattered on the
floor And dozens of people had tram
pied all over that room in the mean
time That's all they can offer as to
the telephone.

sacredness of liberty, and that they
should not depart from common sense.
He told them that unless they were

scented, they should not convict the de-
