    University of California Berkeley HAYWOOD TRIAL CLOSING ARGUMENT OF W. E. BORAH HAYWOOD TRIAL CLOSING ARGUMENT OF W. E. BORAH May It Please the Court Gentlemen of the Jury : You have been patient throughout this long and tedious trial, and you have listened with marked attention to the evidence which has been given, and with especial attention to the arguments which have been made by counsel both for the opening and for the defense. I regret that I am compelled to commence this argument at a time of day when you must be somewhat weary and at a time in the trial when you must be impatient to get to your final duty and to the final discharge of the great task which has been imposed upon you. But I will not take up more of your time than seems necessary for the presentation of the State's cause more than is essential to in some degree and to some extent review the arguments made by the very able and very eloquent counsel upon the part of the defense. Special Prosecutor. I am conscious at this time and by this time that I am a special prosecutor. It has been impressed upon my mind several times during the trial and several times during the arguments of counsel for the defense. I am not aware, how- ever, that the fact that I am a special prosecutor should add anything in the way of disparagement or discredit to my ap- pearance before you to say the last word that is to be said upon behalf of the State.
