"An Account of the Proceedings on the Trial of Susan B. Anthony, on the Charge of Illegal Voting"

One of them said that there was no way for the inspectors to get
around placing the name upon the register; the other one, when she came
in, left the room.
Q. Did this one who said that there was no way to get around placing the
name upon the register, state that she had her right to register but did
not have the right to vote?
A. I didn't hear him make any such statement.
Q. You didn't hear any such statement as that?
A. No, sir.
Q. Was there a poll list kept of the voters of the first election
district of the 8th ward on the day of election?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. (Handing witness two books.) State whether that is the poll list of
voters kept upon the day of election in the first election district of
the 8th ward, of the city of Rochester?
A. This is the poll list, and also the register.
Q. Turn to the name of Susan B. Anthony, if it is upon that poll list?
A. I have it.
Q. What number is it?
A. Number 22.
Q. From that poll list what tickets does it purport to show that she
voted upon that occasion?
A. Electoral, State, Congress and Assembly.
_United States rests._

JUDGE SELDEN opened the case in behalf of the defendant, as follows:
_If the Court please, Gentlemen of the Jury_:
This is a case of no ordinary magnitude, although many might regard it
as one of very little importance.
