Abstract
Among the men of Pagan antiquity none stand higher mentally nor morally than Socrates. His colossal genius has yet to be equaled. His life was above reproach though his views at times were influenced by the beliefs of the age. He worked for his people, but they appreciated him not. Finally indicted by his enemies, tried and sentenced to death, his last moments were an epitome and a climax of his life. Was he guilty? It is well to sea whether the charges were true or what the real causes of his death were.
