This chapter discusses Amelia Norman's attempt to hang herself in her cell on the morning of her trial on January 15, 1844 in the Court of Sessions in the Tombs. It cites Lydia Maria Child, who stated that the defection of Amelia's lawyer, Thomas Warner, had proved too much for a spirit that had so long been under the pressure of extreme despondency. It also talks about the three judges who made up the Court of Sessions and sat on the top tier of a high platform, dwarfing the lawyers who performed beneath them. The chapter highlights Frederick Augustus Tallmadge, who served as the presiding judge, and two aldermen, Elijah F. Purdy and David Vandervoort, the three city officials that formed the Court of Sessions during Amelia's trial. It reveals that Purdy was the acting mayor when Amelia had unsuccessfully appealed a seduction complaint against Henry Ballard after he had her arrested for prostitution.
这一章讨论了1844年1月15日上午，阿米莉亚·诺曼在坟墓法庭受审时试图在牢房里上吊自杀。书中引用了莉迪亚·玛丽亚·查尔德的话，她说阿米莉亚的律师托马斯·华纳的叛逃，对一个长期处于极度沮丧压力下的灵魂来说，已经证明了太多的压力。它还谈到了组成联邦最高法院的三位法官，他们坐在一个高台的顶层，使在他们下面工作的律师相形见绌。这一章重点介绍了担任主审法官的弗雷德里克·奥古斯都·塔尔梅奇(Frederick Augustus Tallmadge)和两位市议员，伊利亚·f·珀迪(Elijah F. Purdy)和大卫·范德沃特(David Vandervoort)，这三位市政官员在阿米莉亚受审期间组成了塞申斯法院。报告显示，在阿米莉亚以卖淫罪被亨利·巴拉德逮捕后，她对亨利·巴拉德提出引诱指控，但上诉失败，珀迪是代理市长。
