To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
M. D. Flavin, in this case, testified not only that he had read and talked about the case and had formed and expressed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the defendants, that he was bitterly prejudiced, but further, that he was related to one of tho men who was killed, and that for that reason he felt more strongly against the defendants than he otherwise might, yet he was held to be competent 35 on his mere statement that he believed he could try the case fairly on the evidence.
No mat...ter what the defendants were charged with, they were entitled to a fair trial, and no greater danger could possibly threaten our institutions than to have the courts of justice run wild or give way to popular clamor, and when the trial judge in this case ruled that a relative of one of the men who was killed was a competent juror, and this after the man had candidly stated that he was deeply pre- judiced and that his relationship caused him to feel more strongly than he otherwise might, and when in scores of in- stances he ruled that men who candidly declared that they believed the defendants to be guilty; that this was a deep conviction and would influence their verdict, and that it would require strong evidence to convince them that the de- fendants were innocent, when in all these instances the trial judge ruled that these men were competent jurors, simply because they had, under his adroit manipulation, been led to say that they believed they could try the case fairly on the evidence, then the proceedings lost all semblance of a fair trial.
