The American people generally say I was one. T presume you think I was one. Can you im agine anything more insane than my going to that depot and shooting the president of the United States? You are here to say whether T was sane or insane at that moment. temember —at that moment, when T fired the shot. You have nothing to do with my condition before or since that shot was fired. If you have any doubt of my sanity at that moment,” you must give me the benernt of that doubt and acquit. If you have any doubt whether I fired the shot on my own account or as the acent of the Deity, you must acquit. If 1 fived it on my own account I sane. If T fired it, supposing myself the agent of the Deity, T was insane, and you must acquit. That is the law as given m the recent decision in the New York court of appeals. It rev olutionizes the old rule and is a grand step forward in the theory of insanity. It is worthy of this age of ra nds, electricity and telephones, and it comes from the progressive state of New York. T have no hesitation in saying it is @ special providence in my favor, and ask this court and jury so to consider it. Some of the best people of America think I am the greatest man of this age [laughter] and this feeling 18 growing, They be- lieve in my inspiration and that prov- idence and I have really saved the na- tion another war. My speech setting forth my defense in detail was tele- graphed Sunday to all the leaning pa- pers in America and published Mon- dsy morning, and now T am permitted by his honor to address 1t to you. Only one mistake occurred in it and that was my fault and T desire to express my indebtedness to the American press for the able way in which they have reported this The Ame press is a vast case. engine. They generally bring down their man when they open on him, They opened on we with all their bat teries last July because they did not know my motive and inspiration when I shot the president. Now that they know my motive and inspi- ration their bitterness has gone. Some editors are double-headed - they curse you to y and bless you to-morrow as they imagine public opinion is for or agamst you, which shows a very fow grade of character. I desire to thank my sister, my brother and my counsel, Mr. Scoville and Mr. Reed, for their valuable services on this trial. Tintend c¢o give my counsel ample foes, especially Mr. Scoville, He is a staunch man and a hero and T com mend him to Chicago and the north westasa first-class lawyer and Christian gen leman. We have differed some- what as to the defense; he has his theory and I have mine. 1 told him to work his theory for all it was worth and he has done it n a masterly way and T commend him for it, for his zeal and his ability as an advocate. Con sidering the slight cxperience he has had as an advocate, he has shown himself & man of marked resou In other words you cannot tell w t is in a man till he has a chanceto show it. Some men never have a chance and go down in obscurity to the grave. There are plenty of brains in this world, but it is only the man who has a chance that developes the fact that he has brains. 1t is brains, op- portunity and providence that makes agreat man. T return thanks to the marshal and his aids, the superintend- ent of police and his force, the war- den of the jail and keepers, Gen, Ayers and his troops, for the services rendered me during the trial, T re. turn thanks to this honorable court and to this bright jury for their long and patient attention on this case. am not here as a wrecked man or as a lunatic T am here as a patriot and my speech is as followe.,” Guiteau then produced a newspaper and settled down to his speech pub- lished last Monday.
