Mrs. Clay, do you appreciate...
1:15:06
the grave situation
your two boys are in?
1:15:10
Don't you know that, under the law...
1:15:12
they are equally guilty of murder...
1:15:15
that, under the law,
they may both be hanged for it?
1:15:20
But I can't tell you,
and you can't make me!
1:15:24
Don't you understand?
1:15:26
I am offering you
the life of one son.
1:15:30
Take it and tell us which boy
killed Scrub White.!
1:15:36
No.
1:15:38
No!
1:15:39
No!
1:15:41
Don't you know this court
can make you answer my question?
1:15:45
Don't you know that you can
be sent tojail yourself?
1:15:49
That shielding a criminal...
1:15:51
makes you an accessory
to that crime?
1:15:54
That by your mistaken affection...
1:15:57
you are deliberately
sending both boys...
1:16:00
to the gallows?
1:16:02
- Don't you know -
- That's enough of that.
1:16:08
Your Honor, I protest against
the prosecution's attempt...
1:16:10
to force this woman to decide
which one of her two sons shall live...
1:16:14
and which shall die.
1:16:16
In her eyes,
these boys hold an equal place.
1:16:19
Perhaps if my learned friend...
1:16:22
knew more of the law -
1:16:24
I may not know so much
of law, Mr. Felder...
1:16:27
but I know what's right
and what's wrong...
1:16:30
and I know what you're asking is wrong.
1:16:37
Put yourself
in this woman's place, Your Honor.
1:16:39
Can you truthfully say
you'd do differently?
1:16:44
But look at her. She's - She's just
a simple, ordinary country woman.
1:16:49
She can't even write her own name.
1:16:52
Yet has she no feelings, no heart?
1:16:59
I've seen Abagail Clay exactly
three times in my life, gentlemen...
