To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The defendant's testimony differed essentially from this. Mr. Yancey's fame as tte orator had become widely known and the court room was packed to its utmost capacity to hear him in this somewhat celebrated case. He commenced, as I afterwards learned to be his custom, by renouncing and eliminating every minor or severely disputable conclusion of fact, which weaker advocates are apt to argue, as grounds for a recovery. He then stated clearly and distinctly the propo- sitions of fact which he con...tended the testimony established ; and ingeniously and ingenuously dissected and collated the testimony in such manner as almost to force the conviction that his contentions were just. To say that his speech was a powerful one is meagre praise. His voice was music's self.
The vast audience maintained a deathlike silence, while the jury sat almost as motionless as statues. So impressed was I with the fear that the jury would be swerved from their proper poise, I felt it to be my duty to caution them not to allow their feelings to carry them beyond what their judg- ments would approve.
