As you may know, the use of pathos is an appeal to emotion that mainly tugs on the heart strings in order to have readers/audience members feel sorry for the writer/speaker so that they may be more easily persuaded. That said, the line of the speech that seems to do this the most strongly is the first line: “Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote.” To state that a person is before you who is indicted can certainly lend to the possibility of feeling sorry for them.
We can actually deduce that the sentence that most strongly uses pathos in this passage from Susan B. Anthony's "Speech After Being Convicted of Voting" is: “Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote.”
Pathos is actually known as a literary appeal that is used by authors to appeal to the emotions of the readers or audience. Other appeals are logos and ethos.
Thus, we see that the sentence above is correct.
