Excerpt from Illustrated Life and Career of William Palmer of Rugeley: Containing Details of His Conduct as School-Boy, Medical-Student, Racing-Man, and Poisoner; With Original Letters of William and Anne Palmer, and Other Authentic Documents As to the guilt of the wretched man, the certainty of it is such as may safely set the public conscience at rest It is true, the proofs in this case were exclusively circumstantial. But we would remind all who may not have ao curately reflected on this interesting subj ect, that no proofs can possibly be so satisfactory as those derived from circumstantial evidence, where the chain of that evidence is really complete. And why. Because, however trustworthy witnesses may be, they still are liable, when deposing to the fact itself at issue, itself controverted (instead of to a multiplicity of seemingly minor circum stances) - however trustworthy witnesses may be, they are liable to be swayed by a thousand feelings - by pity, terror, hope, fear, by likes and dislikes whereas circumstances have neither likes nor dislikes, no passions, no emotions, no interests to warp their testimony or cloud their judgment. It may be said that it is living witnesses, after all, who depose to those circumstances them selves. True but so far as each is sev erally concerned, these circumstances do not appear necessarily connected with the actual deed, or with its disturb ing spectacle. No one individual circmnstan ce would of itself convict the accused; it is the chain of them which involve him, and that chain is formed out of the depositions of a multitude of different persons, who not only could not possibly have concerted such a mutually explaining body of proofs, but who are many of them stran gers to each other, and are, like all numerous masses of individuals, actuated by various interests, objects, and passions. The obvious impossibility of jointly inventing this complete plot of inferential proof - an impossibility inherent in the very nature of circumstantial evidence where everyfact would be indifi'erent only for its perfect concordance wit]; ovary Ollier fact, and where each of these facts is attested by a distinct witness nu connected, and often unacquainted, with his fellow deponents; this imposai bility constitutes the superior strength of circumstantial evidence, in comparison with that direct testimony about the main issue itself, which testimony can be, and too often is, suborned on either side.
