14 Feb 1813 + Church Note
II Topics Ch.6.
(1) *7 §.1. Abstract
Part 5. Power over persuasion

Facility here is (the adoptive ) is as the of declaration is
supposed and the supposed probity and intelligence of each durable
as the case of intelligence relative intelligence in the adoptive, inversely
3. Not necessary the declaration should be or been sincere sincere</del>

1. One is by producing — no matter by what means —
a declara on the part of .A. - a declaration of opin persuasion,
to the effect desired, couched in a determinate form of words. In this manner, to that same effect circumstances
favouring, in the breast of B. a persuasion
of the adoptive kind is frequently produced - produced without
difficulty, and of course.

(a)
Where declaration
of credence is false
proof of falsity
impossible viz.
in the case of
any individual
even though he
should have it
applied have declared
opposite belief
in opposite propositions
&c. So
long as there is
an interval
between the two
declarations

Note (a)
Where a declaration of persuasion has more or less of falsity
in it, let the falsity be ever so abundant proof to prove <add>to make proof</add> of such
falsity has just been stated as being impossible an operation plainly impossible. Yet:
viz. in the instance of this or that particular individual
taken by himself. For to state a case which without very gross
(and unnecessary) imprudence can scarcely ever be realized
in in contradiction to the declaration in question made <add>expressed (suppose) in writing</add> suppose
another declaration also in writing made by the same person and so opposite to it as to be irreconcileable
to it. This other The two irreconcilable declarations will hardly have
better recev received its their expression exactly at the same
time. . If not, defence and escape let the declaration in
question be ever so completely false, defence and escape
are easy: at one time I was p my persuasion was
as per paper A: at another time as per papers B: no
breach of sincerity at either time.
