27 May 1808 7 Winners to gain some others

After the mischiefs that have been seen, the examination
occasionally produced in the Jurymens withdrawing-chamber room is scarce worth regarding.

When a Jury remains shut up for hours, what
is the cause of this imprisonment? It is the compulsionary
which for a time finds some of the company refractory
By some pretext a false account of their opinions must
be given, and this they do not like: the to avoid it
they their endeavours are employed to furnish bring new those
on the opposite side.

Substitute liberty to force compulsion, truth to falshood,
nothing of this need happen. Before he goes to the withdrawing
the opinion of each man will in general
have been formed. The light which neither the experienced
Advocates are both due more often have them furnishing the Judge (each the
Jurymen having all along the rig faculty not only of commanding
further explanations from such contacts, but of praying
applying for
elucidations of to the Judge) a Juryman will not in general
be apt to look for at the hands of those equally<add>similarly unlearned</add> inexperienced
colleagues. By the time the Judge has finished
his charge is soon after Juryman will in one
way or other have made up his mind: over either
that he is unable to form his an opinion, or that his opinion
is on the ptiff's side or that his opinion is on
the defendant's side.

Suppose a circumstance particular occurs to him, that
had escaped his notice which in the box, and respecting
which, hoping for information further lights from among his colleagues, he
puts questions accordingly, and receives answers: and suppose
this to happen to more than one. All the while Intercourse of this sort will take up time
but the quantity of time it will take up is as nothing if compared compared with that which is to produce conquest on our part, submission on the other.
