This is an attempt to produce, simply for the gain of those who run these exhibitions, a scene exploiting the mixery and anguish of a man on his trial for capital punishment and also to exploit the feelings of the judge, who, in passing sentence of death, must not be thought to be doing something in the nature of play acting. It only shows how low people will fall simply to advertise their business."
