To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was not necessary, he con- tended, to prove the woman of perfectly sound mind ; "all men are insane sometime in their lives ; " but the question for the jury to determine, was — ^had this prisoner, at the time she committed the murder, suf- ficient rationality to distinguish between right and wrong ?
He would not, he said, reflect; in the slightest man- ner upon Dr. Bontecou ; he acknowledged the pro- priety of the compliments which have been paid to him by Mr. Townsend; nevertheless, his te...stimony was but a bundle of opinions and conjectures, and such opinions and conjectures are not evidence. You cannot convict this woman without evidence; neither can you acquit her on mere opinion.
True knowledge and skill, he remarked, are pro- verbially modest. Sir Isaac Newton regarded him- self as a mere child on the sea shore, but Dr. Hege- man, fresh from a university, with a year's practice, and a single insane patient, without any knowledge of the previous life, habits, or character of the pris- oner, is relied upon as the chief witness to establish her insanity.
