Excerpt: ...out of Prison he was so dull, stupid, morose, excited io anger by petty troubles, small in our view but mountains in his way, filled in his waking hours with moody recolleciions, and rising at mid-night to sing incoherent songs, dance without music, read unintelligible jargon and combat with imaginary enemies. How oiherwise than on the score of madness can you explain the stupidity which caused him to be taken lor a fool at Apptegate's, on the way from the Prison lohis home? How else the ignorance which made him incapable ot distinguishing the coin which he offered at the halter's shop? How else his ludicrous apprehensions of being recommitted l0 the State Prison for live years, for the offence of breaking his dinner knife? How else his odd and strange manner of accouniing for his deafness, by expressions, all absurd and senseless, and varying with each interogator; as to John Depuy "that Tyler struck him across the eats with a plank, and knocked his hearing off, and that it never came back; that they put salt in his ear, but it did'nt do any good for his hearing was gone, all knocked off;" to the Rev. John M. Austin, "the siones dropped down my ears, or the stones of my ears dropped down;" to Ethan A. Warden, " got stone in my ear, got it out, thought 1 heard better when I got it out;" to Doctor Hermance, "that his ears dropped," and to the same witness on another occasion, "that the hearing of his ears fell down;" to his mother, ' that his ear had fell down;" to Deborah Depuy, " that Tyler si tuck him on the head with a board and it seemed as if the sound went down his throat;" io Doctor Brigham, "thai he was hurt when young, it made him deaf in the right ear, ..".

Ment. My answer to all such charges shall be brief. When this cause shall have been committed to you, I shall be happy indeed if it shall ap pear that my only error has been, that I have felt too much, thought too intensely, or acted too faithfully. If my error would thus be criminal, how great would yours be if you should render an unjust verdict Only four months have elapsed since an outraged People, distrustful of judicial redress, doomed the prisoner to immediate death. Some of you have confessed that you approved that lawless sentence. All men now rejoice that the prisoner was saved for this solemn trial. But this trial would be as criminal as that precipi tate sentence, if through any wilful fault or prejudice of yours, it should prove but a mockery of justice. If any prejudice of witnesses, or the imagination of Counsel, or any ill-timed jest shall at any time have di.

Download or read book The William Freeman Murder Trial written by Andrew W. Arpey and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2003-12-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antebellum culture is spectacularly exposed in this book of horrific multiple murder and madness in Upstate New York. Andrew W. Arpey offers insight into subjects that will have broad appeal to historians and scholars of law, journalism, religion, psychiatry, politics, race, and reform. Drawing on newspapers, trial accounts, and private papers, Arpey shows the political machinations surrounding the case and the heated debate the trial set off over the relationship of race and crime, the use of punishment, and the boundaries of legal responsibility. His superb reconstruction of the trial, the motivations of its many actors, and the trial's status in American history place this book alongside the best crime novels. In 1846 William Freeman, a young man of African and Native American descent, stabbed to death four members of the Van Nest family with no apparent motive. His victims, all of whom were white, included an elderly woman, her pregnant daughter, and her two-year-old grandson. Freeman was quickly apprehended, but his mental health soon became a matter of controversy. Led by the future secretary of state William H. Seward, his counsel entered the first insanity plea in the state's history. The Van Nest killings and the trial of William Freeman, though illustrative of many aspects of antebellum society and culture, have never received in-depth scholarly attention. Arpey's investigation into the case yields a wide range of provocative insights that are invaluable to a critical understanding of New York history, legal debate, and race matters in American history.

This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Argument of William H. Seward in Defence of Abel F. Fitch and Others Under an Indictment for Arson: Delivered at Detroit on the 11th, 12th and 14th of September, 1851 Here then, gentlemen, are seven assaults on the cars with stones, one demon stration against them with a gun or pistols, one assault with guns, one obstruction with timbers and one alleged burning of a mail car - in all eleven outrages. They are undoubtedly to be condemned. The actors in them ought to be and I hope will be detected and punished; but we have no proof that these outrages were committed by all or by any one or more of the defendants on trial here. We have no knowledge of the circumstances in which they were committed. We know that they were criminal, but we have no evidence that they were preconcerted nor that they Were connected with each other; still less that they were connected with any purpose of burning the depot at Detroit or any other depot. On the principle therefore of rejecting such evidence as leads to no conclusion concerning the existence of the conspiracy alleged, I claim that these transactions be laid by altogether ln the consideration of that question, or, at least, that they shall weigh no more than successive demonstrations of malice and guilt occurring within the region where the defendants lived.
