it come over to my office and I'll tell

you right see you boys at joes and a

half an hour sit down man thank you I

just heard a funny thing from one of the

newspaper men he tells me that whenever

you're the attorney for the defense in

an important criminal case all the

newspapers set up their headlines in

advance defendant acquitted it's got so

the Newsboys of yelling extras before

the jury's verdict has been read that's

right they found out that I was good for

circulation you'd make the front page

yourself Jim if you're a good copy I'm

not good copy I don't work for the

newspapers I work for the public least I

try to sounds like you're rehearsing for

mad I'm gonna make it my business to put

you where you belong in prison I'll do

it if it takes the rest of my life you

and who else the dowels slow thinking

slow-moving public ever since you won

your first case you've invoked the law

to protect the lawless you've faced a

lot of juries and you've wheedled and

tricked and finagle them into doing your

bidding or someday you're gonna face a

real Jordan

the true grand jury the people and

they'll destroy you not bad Jim not bad

you ought to put a few of those tremolo

stops in the courtroom you might win a

case once in a while well I gotta be

going I'm on the way to the end and law

school to hand out diplomas to a bunch

of babes who think they're gonna be

honest lawyers see you later

I have invited here today to distribute

these diplomas one of our very own I

take great pleasure in welcoming back to

this hall from which he himself

graduated the most brilliant attorney

that this law school has ever turned out

mr. Matthew Mitchell

Dean Lambert the gentlemen of the

faculty ID guests and fellow students

I'm glad the Dean specified state bar

for I've been accused of being an

ornament of many bars the reason that

I'm not a tired befitting this occasion

is that when the deans invitation was

phone my office I was at my favorite bar

downtown it is my belief that every

witness should be given several drinks

of good liquor before being put on the

stand to get from them the truth the

whole truth and nothing but the truth

rather than by the usual routine of

swearing them in I am such a witness

here today testifying before you having

hoisted a few myself I am in the mood to

give you the truth rather than the

choice bits of hooey that you've

expected to hear if mr. Blackstone knew

of my experiences in court he would turn

over in his grave to see what has become

of his basic structure of law to protect

society and the last thing that he would

find in a courtroom today is a lawyer

with any regard for justice it is not

too late young ladies and gentlemen you

still have time to become honest

carpenters plaster is to nog refer some

sales women I've been asked to hand out

your diplomas I can't do it I won't be a

party to it and have this be treason

gentlemen make the most of it

oh he say why didn't you tell us you was

gonna do a thing like this Matt I'd have

been in the front row I wished I was

there too Mitchell was drunk says dean

of law school and he was well be asked

to resign from alumni association I they

don't ask me to resign from the bar it's

all right with me uh he's better looking

than that observed gentlemen page one in

every issue what did you do it for of

our association prohibits its members

from advertising advertising gentlemen

of advertising money can't buy in the

Recker fog ducker that young lady we

pay you will feel necessary for the

privilege of working for you that's a

very nice thing to say even if you don't

wouldn't work for anybody but you fine

well you were responsible for my

deciding to go to law school mr.

Mitchell I've followed your career ever

since I was 16 I've attended practically

every one of your trials I think maybe I

know more about you than you do yourself

I can assure you that I meant every word

that I said at the graduation exercises

publicity stunt if you really believed

what you said you wouldn't be staying in

the business my dear young lady before

you go any further I must warn you I'm

unethical completely unscrupulous a

publicity hound and a man was a profound

weakness for pretty girls I I don't

believe you'd ever be weak about

anything least not during office hours

oh yes I never let business interfere

with my weaknesses

will you kindly tell me how a girl with

eyes like yours ever happened to study

law isn't that rather an old line for

clever lawyer be using it's the old

lines that get results with juries and

women well if y'all through with me mr.

notes taken on this to mr. Mitchell yeah

you were upstairs playing roulette velu

came over and bided you down to his

cabin to have a drink you didn't want to

down you had a few drinks he must have

doped one of course when you woke up

heavily invited you to join him you're a

future only thought was escaped but he

bought the door and he said you listen

happened on the boat and you know it you

were trying desperately to escape but he

infuriated he he whipped out his gun you

grabbed his wrist to get it away in a

struggle the gun went off and below sank

to the floor you stood there but will it

crumpled body that's it eight copies

massage hey copies there you are

self-defense well I sweaty and that that

I can't sit down Mabel sit down I want

to look at your book to play a little

red riding hood but you're more the type

of Lucretia Borgia well you can't help

how you look can you what we're after

something simple sweet unsophisticated a

bewildered little stranger in a big city

get me I was only 16 years old when I

first met mr. Ballew I didn't know very

much about men then I mr. Bellew sized

up to me like a theme to me oh yeah

seemed to me like a responsible

businessman

Oh a perfect gentleman I was a stranger

alone in the world he was so nice and

sympathetic and there was no one around

to warn me and tell me what he really

was thank you Jim handkerchief with the

ammonia there was nobody to tell me that

he was a married man who deserted his

wife and his family he won my trust in

confidence and I had no idea that he

didn't intend to marry me legs I was

horrified when I learned about his

racket business business I told him I

could never have anything to do with the

man who who made his money out of

gambling he told me he intended to sell

his gambling ship since meeting me he

said he wanted to lead a different life

by this time I had learned to love and

to trust him so when he asked me to

visit him on the gambling ship I

couldn't see any harm in it there must

have been something in the drink he gave

me because I lost consciousness and when

I came to there was only one thought in

my mind I wanted to get away I opened

the bedroom door and there he was in his

cabin drinking then and there I knew

what had happened he told me as I came

to the door he was in a terribly ugly

mood I started for the door to leave I

wanted to run up on the deck I was ready

to throw myself in the water if he

followed me

when was Mitchell ever ethical

he grabbed a hold of me I beg him to let

me go but he wouldn't I tried to scream

but he put his hand over my mouth I bit

and I scratched trying to get away from

him he cursed me and then he pulled a

gun out of his pocket I thought he was

going to kill me we struggled and then

try to get the gun away from him then

all of a sudden the gun went off he he

slipped are you been out for a beer no I

caught up the boss call him set up an

extra maybe Wilson quit it cinch I have

my own reasons for refusing the Cooney

case mr. Castro pathogen was smart metal

there's plenty of dough in this if you

win we got a strictly airtight alibi I'm

a very busy man my present fine stick-up

most my time today talking listen quit

stalling what do you got against Cooney

if you want to know what I've got

against Cooney I'll tell you I don't

like the kidnapping racket it smells

you've gone to bat for lots of tough

hombres before you can't take a walk out

powder now I've always chosen my own

clients that's what you think listen

Mitchell you're a criminal lawyer there

are lots of us bringing you business in

this town for a long time now and you

made plenty of dough out of your racket

and I've gotten your do you want me to

be grateful you gotta stick with the

crowd that's been your friends you can't

turn your pals down just because you

don't like the way a piece of business

smells suppose we all walk out on you

you're not trying to threaten me are you

Alyssa mizzle there's been plenty of

times when you needed us like for a

witness at the last minute or an alibi

we've been good fellows we kept our

mouths shut that puts you on our side of

the law now we're in a spot you've gotta

stick

you get me our business the pass has

been strictly confidential for your sake

as well as mine who says anything's

gonna be spelled I'm just reminding you

that's all and if the Cooney case is no

dice with you that's okay with us too

thats-your-funeral not eyes wait a

minute Castro how many people did you

say saw kooni the afternoon the child

was kidnapped 55 and we need more we can

get him

hello my time is what day is it what

year is it shall I tell rocky to get the

car and take you home what for well

you've been up all night haven't you no

as a matter of fact I overslept hit this

couch to 5 30 near at his 10 for our

sleeps enough for anybody did you ever

hear the story about burning the candle

at both ends yes my candle burns at both

ends it will not last the night but all

my poles and all my friends it gives a

lovely life if you were married wait a

minute wait a minute wait a minute don't

you go any further if you think you're

gonna rope me anything like that young

lady you're mightily mistaken if I made

up my mind in there you nobody could

stop me but what about me huh least of

all you but that isn't what I was going

to say well what are you gonna say if

you were married and had a family you

never would have taken that Cooney case

why heard you say a dozen times you

wouldn't have anything to do with that

case unless you could act a special

prosecutor against Cooney that's right

well what made you change your mind see

there you go putting me on the spot and

you're only working for me what would

you do if you were married to me I'd

take you in hand do you over hmm and

only to your heart's desire oh oh now

for little breakfast maybe a tough job

Laura there you don't approve of me do

it if every man needed a guide mentor

manager and mother it's you the matter

with me everything I've been looking

over your books mr. Mitchell in the past

five years you've taken in over a

million dollars in fees your bank

balance this morning is just $84 and

eleven cents maybe that's why I took the

Cooney case you've given most of that

money away to hang us on and back

slappers who call you chief and the big

shot why right now you've got a pension

list twice the size of your payroll

maybe I better cut down on my payroll

might be a good idea for you to fire

some of those X crooks you've got

working for you

take Gardner for instance how much of a

fee did he pay you when you defended him

on the embezzlement charge I don't

remember I know he paid you a thousand

dollars then you gave him a job in your

office and inside of three months he'd

stolen 5,000 from you you're always

giving a job to every Tom Dick and and

Joan if you take the trouble to look it

up you'll find out that I've been

working here so far without one cent of

salary what hmm why didn't you say

something Charlie nah why wasn't miss

Harry's put on the payroll oh well what

if I did do I have to think of

everything thirty dollars a week when

she's more than a law clerk what she's

my guide mentor manager and mother make

it fifty that suture no it doesn't

you're a sucker as usual it's just twice

what you want to pay me mr. Mitchell

I'll work for you for nothing if you'll

do something for me what's that don't

take the corny case you'll get fifty

dollars a week now save your breath

before I refuse to accept your

resignation I would like to know the

reason for it I came here because I

wanted to work in a law office well in

this a law office no it's an outlaw

office you get the case of a woman who

swears she's innocent you'll make her

plead guilty and then you get her off

well an innocent person is acquitted now

what's wrong with that if neighbor

Wilson didn't kill Baloo somebody else

did and that somebody is free and

protected from the law because she

admitted the killing what does that make

me an accessory after the fact so that's

why you're quitting no it's the corny

case oh I'm not going to annoy you

talking about it anymore but I brought

mrs. Evans down here to see who I

thought she might have some influence

Evans maybe you've forgotten there was a

child kidnapped and murdered mrs. Evans

is the mother she's outside waiting you

had no right to make any such

appointment I had my own reasons for

taking the Cody case reasons that you

know nothing about I know your reasons

money and publicity that's all you're

interested in

mr. Mitchell's office Lamela clean

I'm sorry I got you down here mrs. Evans

you mean he won't see me well I'm afraid

it wouldn't do any good even if you did

oh oh boy all right dear I'm mrs. Ballew

I'd like to see mr. Mitchell please have

you an appointment no mr. Mitchell wants

me to take care of mrs. balloon I'm mr.

Mitchell's assistant will you step into

my office thank you 50 midfield office d

bog down I guess you think it's funny me

being here but I don't know any other

lives well I'm sure will be glad to do

anything we can for you mrs. Ballew

perhaps I should hate mr. Mitchell

getting that Wilson girl off after she

killed Monty but if he treated her

anything like he treated the children

and me he deserved it well what is it

you'd like to know about the estate the

estate well which isn't exactly what

you'd call it a state but there was some

papers you see Marty didn't spend much

time at home but he kept a few things

there he was very particular about

keeping these papers hidden may I see

them please

have they any value well it all depends

on what these yo-yos represent mrs. blue

if we can prove their loans we can sue

gentry and collect if there's anything

to collect from the man like that but in

all probability they're just gambling

debts and it's almost impossible to do

anything with them well I just thought

I'd see I tell you what I wish you would

do leave these with me and don't say

anything about it to anybody not even

mr. Mitchell I'd like to handle this

case myself do you think they may mean

something well you can't tell they might

mean an awful lot perhaps we can get

Gentry to settle for something any of

that will try thank you it certainly

will come in handy if there's any news

I'll phone you right away and be sure

not to say anything to anybody I

understand goodbye goodbye

mr. Gentry what is it I'm miss Hayes for

Matthew Mitchell's office Oh what does

Mitchell want with me it's about mrs.

Ballew yeah oh well that man thank you

sit down wyd Mitchell sends you widen he

come himself I'm taking care of mrs.

Blues affairs are you going to pay her

that money I don't get you girly maybe

you got me mixed up with somebody else

who says i owe mrs. Ballew any money

what about those iou's you gave to Monty

blue they amount almost twenty thousand

dollars you know what's the idea

Mitchell gets blues Dame off for

croaking him and now he's representing

the widow how does that tie you mrs.

Ballew brought the aisle used to our

office and artists if we could collect

them as Mitchell got those iou's will be

very glad to turn them over to you after

you settle with mrs. Ballew I don't you

worry about mrs. Ballew young me I'm

gonna take care of her I think you

better mr. Gentry I'm sure you'll feel

much easier when you have those iou's in

your own hands goodbye

mrs. Evans is still awaiting mr.

Mitchell very well mrs. Evans mr. Metro

will see you now Thank You mr.

Mitchell's office Bob yes them all come

and mr. Devon I was advised against

waiting to see you mr. Mitchell I was

told it wouldn't be of any use that

depends entirely upon the purpose of

your visit I want you to withdraw as

counsel for Cooney well that's rather a

large order won't you sit down of course

I understand how you feel but what good

would it do if I did withdraw from the

cage he'd only hire another attorney I

there is no reputable lawyer in town who

would handle a case like that even if

there were I'd still ask you to withdraw

why because you've a way of winning

cases

having any children have you know I had

only one you must have seen Bobby's

picture in the tape at the time that he

was stolen from us yeah well I suppose

to you he looked like a lot of other

little children maybe he was not to us

his father and myself I know I know oh

but you don't know you can't know if

you've never had one of your own well

they're so innocent mr. Mitchell so tiny

and helpless and so trusting the world's

a lovely place for them and grown ups of

their friends nobody no human being

would one hurt little child that's true

when you see her baby playing in the Sun

so occupied so important for this

foolish little games and sort of talking

to himself but it's such fun to live

what does suddenly find that he's gone

what is it I'm not into anyone thank you

oh I'm miss again oh I won't take up

much more of your times to melt right

you know how willing we were to pay the

ransom we didn't have that much of

course but we sold our home and

everything we had then we went to our

friends and relatives begged and

borrowed for the rest to make up the

total like we got money from people we

never knew never heard of thousands of

dollars came to us and in one and two

dollar bills and sometimes nickels and

dimes from people who had children of

their own it was like a miracle when we

finally got the money together then we

gave him the sunday asked for

can I baby been there ye hear ye hear ye

depart seven of this honorable court is

now in session now Robert I decide these

are the people vs. Michael Cooney

counsel for both sides ready ready for

the people the fans ready your honor and

bring in the defendant

stop shaking you're not in the chair yet

I'm a of those notes you may proceed

with impaneling of the jury the jurors

will take their seats in the jury box as

their names are called George Reynolds

I cannot emphasize too strongly the

importance of this case to the people of

the state there sits a man who's charged

with an unspeakable crime it isn't only

Cooley who was on trial in this court

it's crime itself smile all the enemies

of society are on trial today the

judgment of this court can mean only one

of two things either our so-called

civilized society is a jumble

unprotected from the attacks of tigers

willing to pounce upon even little

children or our law and order are still

barricades strong enough to hold it bay

the prowling wild beasts ladies and

gentlemen one of the principal

highlights of this trial had been the

brilliant clashes between defense and

prosecution by the way it is obvious now

that mr. Mitchell will base his defense

largely on cooney's alibi which proves

he was nowhere near the ovens home at

the time little bobby was kidnapped a

packed courtroom the cool new trial

today was regale with sensation after

sensation and attorney Matt Mitchell

swung into cross-examination of the

principal witnesses for the prosecution

as he got it

well I guess that's what you walk that's

in muscular gonna take long to planet

afternoon papers cheap rate I'm too many

boy pitches and everything the hammering

cross-examination of the district

attorney Randolph has been unsuccessful

thus far and shaking the Coulee alibi

witnesses boy hooray for our side you

know that fluoride Castro cousin what's

his name of lefty I didn't think he had

a liver attorney Matthew Mitchell

dropped his usual brilliant technique

you and get me the Anthony's sporting

goods store please yes yes hello is this

the Anthony sporting goods store this is

Matthew Mitchell's office miss Hayes

speaking we have a letter from the Colt

firearms company in Toledo saying that

on January the 16th they sent a certain

shipment of revolvers to you do you keep

a record of the purchases of these

revolvers yes we have a record of the

purchaser of every weapon we sell well

could you tell me who but the revolver

with the serial number 326 498 uh just a

moment I look at up for you shall I call

you back no no I'll hold the wire

the grilling cross-examination of the

district attorney wilted Cooney but the

state was unable to disturb any of the

essential details of his story well the

general depressed why all derive

hangover yeah do it I've got it all

wrapped up listen what're you gonna

spring for a finish they got to have two

new pictures and it's too I know what

you fellas want come on Thank You

Charlie four o'clock in the morning hot

shit right you boys go on in make

yourselves at home you know where pastor

who mr. Mitchell Thank You park well

looks like the Cooney cases in the bag

and you're the only one of my employees

who hasn't congratulated me and it's

been a tough case to you'd better get

all the satisfaction out of that you can

because it's your last case so you think

I should retire on my laurels I mean

you'll be forced to retire is that a

threat or a prediction both it was a way

if you can spare a few moments from your

celebration I have all the time there is

sit down Thank while you've been so busy

defending a child murderer I've been

working on another case the Baloo case

fell okay he doesn't know about it I

haven't and I found out a lot of things

well what are the story that neighbor

Wilson tried to tell you was true that

man who entered the cabin pulled a gun

and shot Baloo gentry yes of course

Baloo had over twenty thousand dollars

in iou's from gentry I got those iou's

from mrs. Ballew and I have the gun that

was used by Gentry I did all that on

your time while I was working for you

frame day

I'm going to the district attorney with

what I know mr. Mitchell you will be

indicted for perjury you'll be disbarred

and sent a prisoner yes your friends are

still waiting for you when I'm in

conference mr. Mitchell's in conference

you'll never get Mabel Wilson to back up

that statement why she'd be a fool to

stand for the perjury rap I'm not

depending on labor Wilson I can prove

her story was false I've got the

original data type notes that were taken

when labor Wilson told you her real

story and you dictated her defense and

the stenographer that took those notes

is another witness okay you did learn

something in my office at that well what

do you want me to do give up the Cooney

case what Goodell after the phony case

is almost 1 y'all withdrawal as counsel

would have a tremendous effect on the

jury they might think that I consider

him guilty don't you the trouble with

you young attorneys you believe that

everybody is guilty you forget that a

person with evidence against you a girl

lawyer you're all feel stupid don't you

know that the laws of this state prevent

wife from testifying against her husband

information about a murder that makes us

accessories after the fact oh darling

must you big legal at a time like this I

don't want to be mr. Mitchell oh I beg

your pardon but there are two men from

the district attorney's office and they

say you are dead fog I think that's

grossly exaggerated they're waiting for

police caught that gun man Louie and he

confessed to shooting you last night hey

chief but the x-men just found a stiff

in your office say what's about if y'all

gone crazy yet no they found him by the

safe he was trying to break in so that's

who got shot and he thought it was me

reporters are right on this spot and we

make every front page in the state

beauty rocky causes I'll let you take a

swell picture gorgeous I love grand
