§. Legislative Enquiry Judicatories.

Art. 1. According as time requires admitts, and importance
warrants, for collection of evidence on in which legislative
arrangements have their ground the Legislature will employ
singly or in numbers its own Members, the Members of the Constitution Committee
or persons at large, < uniting together or not the those three
several classes.

Art. 2. Persons at large will be employed in preference
where the distance of examiners from the seat of legislators is such
that a Member of the Legislature or of the Combination
Committee could not be thus employed unless either
he were absent from sitting of the Assembly, or the sittings
of the Assembly were themselves adjourned and
suspended.

Art. 3. On an occasion of this sort, the Legislature
will proceed in the same manner as a Judge Immediate
may do in the collecting of evidence on the occasion
of an ordinary suit, to serve as a ground for his decrees:
and where if person whose testimony is needed the residences
are distant from each other, it will, where confrontation
is deemed necessary them either to the seat of
Legislature, or to any other regarded as more convenient
delay vexation and expence to witnesses and parties taken
into account.
