A BRILLIANT
DEFENSE
By GEORGE B. BURTON
Copyright by American Press Asso
ciation. ML
Joseph Marklaud. cashier of tb* -rth
National was on trial for violation of
tbe banking laws. There was no mors
scrupulously honest man tban Mark
land. brt tbe case agalnat him was
complicated. -Bis conviction or ac
quittal depended largely upon bow It
would be handled by (be state at
toruey and counsel for defense. Bran
McCotd. tbe prosecutor, was a rising
young lawyer, ambitions for political
proferment. There had been much
KruniMing by certain' malcoutenta that
It was Impossible to convict criminals.
McCord. In order to tuak* capital for
himself, resolved to make s ttrenuous
effort to convict every prisoner who
enrne before btm. Uarkland was
among tbe first and McCord sent him,
knowing him to be an innocent man,
to the penitentiary.
Yeurs paused and McCord bad re
turned to tbe practice 6t the law as
an advocate. One day a man accused
of forgery nvnt for blm and naked him
to take bis case. McCord assented
ant] asked tbe man to tell him all
about It.
"Not on my life," said tbe maa "If
you defend me on lines that would
appear proper I sbnll be convicted. 1
know that you are a brilliant lawyer
and I wish to secure my acqnlttal by
some brilliant stroke that will coap
vlnce I be Jury of an error."
McCord assented.
Yet there was one criminal to convict
whom ha would giv* even a life's suc
cess. He bnd bad a brother who bad
been murdered. Tb* murderer bad
covered bla tracks so adroitly that *v*n
the shrewdest detectives could not And
tbe slightest clew to hla identity.
Twenty years bsd passed sine* tb*
tragedy, and every year Evan Mc-
Cord's deslr* for ranges nc* upon bis
brother's slayer Increased till It ap
proached monomania.
Stanwick. whom McCord undertook
to defend by using hla own wits rather
than by establishing bis innocence,
though much ran down, gsve evidence
of once having been a gentleman. U*
was pust middle age and bad tbe bard
look ou Ills fuce of one hardened to
crime. He produced a very bad effect
on ibe jury from tbe start, and Mc-
Cord saw that tbe opportunity to show
bU skill In legal manipulation of a
case was a great one Proud as he was
of hlsolMwers, be threw blmaslf Into
tbe case wltb all his ability.
A forgery case Is nscessarily compli
cated. To convict a. parson of writing
a man's nam* so Ilk* that parson him
self would writ* It Involves tbe opinion
of experts In cblrograpby, who sr*
apt to disagree. McCord by cross *x
amlnntlon greatly aided those experts
who testified that tbe accaaed bad not,
and threw donbt on tbe *vld*bc* of
those who testified Stanwick had. com
mitted tbe forgery, from tb* counsel's
prominence a great deal of latoreat
was manlfeated In tbe cas*. especially
by members of tbe bar. who attended
the trial la large number* to wttneaa
McCord's Ingenious professional de
vice*.
What was especially notlceabl* was
tba abaence of anythlag Ilk* hariaony
between counsel and client. Tb* r*-
pulalve face of tb* prisoner was tb*
find; of all present and ass consid
ered tb* weakest elemsnt In tb* de
fense. Moreover, now and again that
face was bent upon McCord with a
mallgnaat expression. It aaqaisd aa if
tb* man *na aa In4lff*rent to bl* **•
qultfnl as hi* counsel was eager for It
These features rendered tbe case
supremely Interesting aot only to at
torueya. but to tb* public. Tb* newt
papers were filled with (totalled re
ports of tbe trial and camm*oto oa
tb* brilliant esp*dl*ato aa*d by tb*
counsel for tb* dofea**. Therefore aa
tbe legal tournament at It was called,
drew toward a close tbe Internet In tt
lnereeaod. McCord r**tod a day bo
fore summing up. and Ms speech oa
that occasion waa regarded a master
piece of legal defensive Ingenuity.
When tb* cas* was glvan to tb*
Jury It was tb* opinion of moat of
those preeent that bad It not been for
tbe strong evidence adduced by tb*
proeecntlotl and tb* bad Impreaelon
created by tbe prisoner McCord woald
bar* surely won. A* It waa. tb* to
sa* waa In doubt Tb* Jury, however,
were not out more tban an boar wb*a
they sent In word to tbe court that
they had roecbed a verdict. Then
they fll*d In. and befor* a mat*, ex

"Not guilty."
Then occurred tb* most singular la
consistency of tb* wbol* affair, ttea
wlck, who might bar* been suppaaad

Faribault, Minn. She says: " Let me tell you how much
good Cardui has done me. As a young girl, I always had
to suffer so much with all kind of pain. Sometimes, I was
so weak that 1 could hardly stand on my feet I got a
bottle of Cardui, at the drug store, and as soon as I bad
taken a few doses, I began to feel better.
Today, 1 feel as well as anyone can."
