To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He argued truly that every man must be presumed in- nocent till by legal proof he appears to be guilty, and that there was no reason why " the monster" should be excepted from the general rule, or that actual guilt should be presumed on the charge against him more than any other charge against any other person ; that prejudice was a primafacie injustice, and that the crime of stabbing a lady with a weapon which was only calculated to wound, could not be greater than that of stabbing her to the ...heart, and destroying her on the instant ; that if the charge had been cutting the lady's throat, he would have had his choice of advocates. He spoke and published his defence of the monster, who, however, was found guilty, and not half punished for his atrocity.
Theophilus had a competent private fortune ; but as such men as he must somehow be always dabbling in what is called in Ireland " a bit of a lawsuit, " a large percentage of his rents never failed to get into the pockets of the attorneys and coun- sellors ; and after he had recovered from the duke of Eich- mond's perforation, and "the monster" had been incarcerated, he determined to change his site, settle in his native country, and place his second son in the university of Dublin.
