| 520 | _a"The Works of Robert G. Ingersoll, Vol. 10 (of 12)" by Robert Green Ingersoll is a legal anthology written in the late 19th century. This volume showcases Ingersoll's powerful oratory and legal arguments presented during significant trials of his time, emphasizing themes related to justice, morality, and the flaws of the legal system. It includes detailed addresses to juries in high-profile cases, articulating a defense strategy that stresses the importance of integrity and character in legal proceedings. The opening of this volume introduces a closing address to the jury in the Munn trial, where Ingersoll passionately argues for the innocence of the defendant, Daniel W. Munn. He highlights the prejudices associated with the distilling industry and critiques the testimony of the prosecution's key witness, Jacob Rehm, whom he characterizes as unreliable and self-serving. Ingersoll emphasizes the value of good character, urging the jury to rely on substantive evidence rather than the sensationalism of the case or the questionable integrity of certain witnesses. His argument invokes deep considerations of justice and the moral responsibilities of jurors, aiming to persuade them of Munn's innocence based solely on the evidence presented.
