English: George Graham Vest ( December 6, 1830August 9, 1904) was born in Frankfort, Kentucky, and was known for his skills in oration and debate. Vest was a lawyer and a politician who served as a Missouri Congressman, a Confederate Congressman during the Civil War, and finally a US Senator. He is best known for his closing arguments from the trial of a dog named Old Drum in 1870.
Português: O americano George Graham Vest ( 1830-1904) foi Senador entre 1879 e 1903, mas ficou mais conhecido pelo discurso que fez durante um pequeno julgamento em Missouri, ainda quando era advogado, em 23 de setembro de 1870. O processo que o fez famoso tratava da morte de Old Drum (Velho Tambor), o melhor cão de caça de um fazendeiro local. Um vizinho, desconfiado que o animal andava matando suas ovelhas, deu ordens para que atirassem no cachorro se ele voltasse a aparecer em suas terras. Quando Old Drum foi encontrado morto perto da casa dele, seu proprietário resolveu processá-lo, pedindo uma indenização de 50 dólares; o júri lhe concedeu 25 dólares, mas o vizinho apelou da sentença. O dono do cão conseguiu um novo julgamento e contratou dois advogados, um deles George Vest — que, com seu discurso, arrancou lágrimas dos jurados e cunhou a célebre frase "o cão é o melhor amigo do homem".
