THEGOULD TRIAL.
Continued from Jirst
tells a lie in court without a motive
of interest to himself. ; It was the
promptings of truthT and Justice that
that, influenced:- bis testimony.. A
man with a fabricated story -couldn't
ctand the fire of - an ingenious coun
sel. You can't iireak a man down
when he is telling the truth. It is
indeed sad that we have these trials,
but law and society demand '.it," and
we must deal with 'them as we find
them. Wo submit -that this woman
was brutally abused by, this man.
She was driven to desperation. She
is a stranger in a strange land, with
out kindred and friends, nobody but
this man, who said he was her hus
band. Husband! ' Did you ever think
what that one wrd meant? Would
you have submitted for one moment
to the indignities heaped upon her?
The moral law, as' well as'the law of
God, says you won(ci have had a right
to kill him. Courteous to his friends,
but abused his wife. My G6d! what
kind of a man was he? The prosecu
tion wauts to knew why Ramsey
didn't go after a physician just after
the scabbing too'k place. He told
Bob "that the damned bitch didnt't
hurt him," and not to tell anyone. He
didn't want the community to know
that he was so cowardly as to strike
a woman. This is the reason. Physi
cally he was powerful, and instead of
protecting her, he heapod indignities
upon her. Can you appreciate the
agony that woman endured before
the fatal stab? You know human na
ture and of these occurrences. The
evidence is so plain And forcible that
you cannot tail to 'understand it.
Take the evidence, and do unto our
defendant as vou would that others
should do unto you."
lion. Kope Elias, acting Solicitor,
tlien closed the arguments by the fol
lowing brief speech: "I assume that
his honor, and you, gentlemen of the
jury, as well as myself, will partici
pate in this great case. I am here as
the representative of the law; I am
not here to represent the defendant,
nor the memory of her husband, who
is dead; but to perform the stern duty
in pursuance of my oath. I would
not say aught to hurt-the feelings of
the defendant and her counsel; nor to
influence you in any way; nor to in
duce you to 'make a mistake in this
matter, for there is a human life -at
stake. ' My purpose is to aid you in
upholding justice, " whch protects
those who are weak.' The- learned
c)imsej foreldefense.aim that the
prosecution have been guilty of un
fair treatment towards the prisoner.
This does, us great injustice by try
ing to arouse prejudice in your minds.
Where is the injustice-done the pris
oner in the management of this case?
Pause and meditate. She has been
treated with more fairness than any
prisonei I ever saw placed in the
same position. If Dr. J. W. Patton's
evidence was so convincing as to in
fluence IS men to find a true bill
against this woman, wasn't it right
that the State should examine
only one witness? The' gratuitous
criticisms is unjust and out of place.
The other side should receive it, for
they introduced only three witnesses,
when there were scores sworn. Take
Ramsey's evidence and" yon'll convict
her. There are three elements in
the case I shall try to argue. That
part of the testimony where Gould
pulled her off the couch, poured wa
ter on her, etc., has no connection
with what followed later. Let ua
reason together, so that we may ar
rive at the truth. Something must
have occurred before to participate
this flight and pursuit. It is not pos
sible that a man would harm anyone,
especially his wife, without a just and
sufficient cause? So something is un
explained by thej defense, which ne
cessitated her retreat and pursuit.
He was able to whip her -without re
sorting to force.; Laboring under the
insult she had no rther desire than
an insatiable greed for revenge, and
nothing would" satisfy her short of his
life's blood. She got rid of him at
last. : Carefully wcigf all the testU
mony presented forVyour considera
tion, and make up d our verdict ac
cordingly." '"
JCDQE PHILLIPS CHARGE, y
The defendant, Lilly il. Gould, stands
charged with the crime of murder, .
Murder is vhere one human being
takes the life of another from motives of
malice; or, as the law. books say. with
malice aforethought. ':
, Manslaughter is the unlawful killing
of another without malice, expressed ox
implied. Malice is the grand criterion
which distinguishes murder from other
killing; - r. " '''- - - - -r -' -
Any formed design of doing mischief ,
whether arising from hatred and revenge
against deceased, or from a perverse ma
lignity and depravity of heart in general,
constitutes malice aforethought. -V.
Malice in fact, or express" malice, con
sists in a deliberate purpose to take the
life of the person slain, or to do him some
bodily harm, the intention being ascer-.;
taincd from 'external circuuwtances, by
laving i:i wait, antecedent miiliot , form
cr srudgo:-, etc. , .
:,la'.;ce vx. t implied m-.lJ'jr, con
;i;U in aity evil tUcibi Ui ;;ci.ejal, and ii
and they mustall point to the guilt of the
defendant find exclude any rcnsonabla
theory of her innocence. w " - .-.'''
The State must show you bryond a
reasonable" doubt that Chas. JN. " Gould
was killed, and that the defendant did
the'act. " For in 'air indictment for mur
cler, the two constituents of the crime,
to-wit: a voluntary killing .and malice
aforethought must be pi-oved. by.the
State, as it makes the chaise; and," as
means that thejurcuiustancea manifest a
wicked, depraved -and malignant spirit,
regardless of social duty and fatally bent
on mischief, - - ,
Your first inquiry is, did?the defend
ant, Lilly - M. Gnuld, ; inilict a wound on
the tody of the deceased, and ; was his
life taken by that stroke, and has tho
State shown this to your satisfaction and
beyond a resonable doubt? ; :
Every material circumstince necessary
to make out the charge of the State must
bo proved beyond a reasonable doubt,
the accused is presumed to be innocent
until the contrary is shown, both of these
elements must be. proved. The killing
being shown, then the other ingredient,
malice prepense, is also proved ,as a fact
in the eyes of law, not by evidence, ad
duced, but a presumption that the law
makes from the fact of killing; and these
two essential facts being thus establish
ed,, the legal conclusion thereon is .that
the pffence charged is murder. . - -
But the implication of malice, raised
by the law rfnd taken as a fact is not Con
clusive on the party accused, but may be
rebutted. She may show that there was
no malice prepenso, and thereby extenu
ate to manslaughter; or make a case of
justifiable or excusbla homicide; or ' a
case of no criminality at all. The burden
lies on the accused to make these proofs,
if she can; otherwise the' conclusion of
murder, or malice implied, will continue
against her, and will call for and in law
oblige a conviction by the juryjandln
making such extenuating or acquitting
proofs, the law puts on her the onus to
do so, not excluding all reasonable doubts
but merely to the exteulof satisfying the
jury ; and if the jury are left in doubt as
to the extenuating circumstances, it is
murder. , -
Then when the State shows the killing
to have been done hv tlm acensmd. this is
.-vii tho Ktatn a wmii!,-..! n cIiaw w, ...riffo to bis - former
a reasonable doubt. - Then the burden of
proof shifts, and tho prisoner must show
that her offence was manslaughter, a cir
cumstanee which tend to show the jury
that she acted from necessity and in self
defense, and therefore ought to be ex
cused and have a verdict of not guilty.
The circumstances of-mitigation and
excuses may be shown by testimony ofr
fered by the State, or by evidence offer
ed by the prisoner; and the law does not
require this to be shown beyond a rea
sonable doubt by .the prisoner, but to the
satisfaction of the jury. There is no di
rect testimony offered to show the jury
at what time the prisoner got the dagger,
if she did get it, with which the fatal
blow was given, if it was given by her.
The case depends much upon whether
the prisoner and deceased, if they fought,
did fight upon equal terms, and wth. or
Without unfair advantage... -: " v '
, If the ury believe tliAtthe defendant
was assaulted in the kitchen, as testified
to by Robert Kamscy, and that after, the
lapse of 25 or SO minutes, she prepared a
dagger with an intention of using it in
case she got into a difficulty with de
ceased, and went up stvrs for the pur
pose of meeting deceased and having a
conflict with him. If the defendant kill
ed the deceased with the dagger, '.which
is a dead y weapon, it is murder, and not
manslaughter, though the deceased m ule
a violent assault upon her;
If the jury believe that the defendant
went up stairs, not for the purpose of
having a conflict with the deceased, and
an altercation ensued aad the deceased
attacked the defendant with a walking
stick and the defendant was willing to
meet the attack; and did meet it and they
fought mutually and suddenly the de
ceased, with a stick and the defendant
with a dagger, ami the defendant killed
deceased,, it is but manslaughter, al
though the death is caused by the dead
ly weapon. '4 . .. . . .
If the jury believe that the defendant
went up stairs, not for the purpose of
having a conflict with the deceased, and
the deceased attacked the defendant
with a slick, and the defendant, leing
herself faultless, reasonably apprel'end
ed death, or great bodily harm to herself,'
and if she struck the blow under tho
circumstances, she is not guilty of any
violation of the law. The kili'.ug is ex
cusable and the jury will say not guilty.
What 'the jury, in arriving at the true
nature of . the combat, should consider
the size and physical strength 'of the de
ceased as compared with, the prisoner;
the threats he had made, if any, and his
general character for violence. ' Before
the jury should be required to say wheth
er the prisoner cUd .aoiy thing -aibre Uuu a
reasonable personT would have,' done un
der the circumstances, it shouklT..as far
as can be, be placed in the defendant's
situation, surrounded with the same ap
pearances of danger, with the eanwde
greei of knowledge of the. deceased's :
pj-obable purpose; Whlc1it; the defendant
possessed, and with th same knowledge
of his character as a violent man ; for; if
tire deceased attacked the prisoner, she
being faultlessand from the nature of
the attack,' 6he had reasonable ground to
believe there was a design to destroy heT
life, or" commit great bodily harm upon
her person, the killing of the deceased
by the prisoner would be excusable homi
cide, and this would bo - so, e ven though
it should afterwards appear no felony
was intended. : "-. -
The grounds of belief must be reason
able; the defendant must Judge: at his
peril; for it is the province of .tlio jury
on the trial to determine the reasonable
ne&s of this belief. ' '.- -
The jury should consider all the' evi
dence and weigh it. It is the -province
of the jury to pass upon the facts. It is
tho duty of the court to instruct as to the
law; The jury are to find their verdict
cpon the law as laid down by the cpui t
nd the facts as found by, them to be
