further details it would be needless for me
to attempt to trouble you with.
According to my plan of judicature the
whole soil of the country in question – England
for example or British India is divided into districts,
of as nearly equal in length and may be, which I call Judge-shires: in analogy to the Latin name comitatus
an English county which comis being the Latin
name for the English part may be
stiled an Earl Shire: dimensions
of each such that supposing the
Justice chamber in the centre of
the district the suitor whose
abode is at the greatest distance
from it may repair to it & be
in attendance in it during the
whole time of its sitting supposed
hours with time sufficient
to repair to it & return from it
every four & twenty hours without
passing the night out of his own home.
The information capable
of being obtained as above is no
more than a sample of the
benefit derivable from such
a system of local immediate judicatories
to the benefit of appeal to a higher
order stiled accordingly appellate judicatories:
the ground of the appeal being constituted by a transcript of the sort of record above mentioned.
