§. 1. Introductory History
Duelling, in respect of the homicide which, (not to speak

its genus homic is but a species of the genus homicide,
and for the bringing to view what belongs to is proposed to be done in relation to the species so large
a portion comes necessarily necessary to be exhibited of the whole of the
matter necessary to the bringing to view what seemed proper
to be done in relation to the rest whole of the genus, that the
time according to the best calculation that could be made, the
advantage benefit resulting from the comprehension of the representation
would be no inadequate compensation for the additional
expence in time and space.
