Dear Students,
For your first Primary Source assignment, we're going to look at the response August Spies made in the courtroom, upon his wrongful conviction of murder during the Haymarket Square Riot.
Why do you think he was singled out, and why was the law so unfairly against him?
Please answer these questions in your very best writing. You'll need to produce a 5 paragraph essay, complete with a thesis statement, 5 body paragraphs.
