In Judge Barringtons In the time of the antient
time Greeks calling a man a
pirate no insult
Barrington in his on the Statute
Art 25 Your prof occupation Sir — what is it? a
Pirates? or what otherwise was as according to Homer
among the questions put to a stranger by Menaleus
Expressed Worded a little more
in detail — the question might
have stated thus You are a plunderer
So and for getting in the carrying on your
business plunder a strong
and lawless arm is
the instrument you
employ habitual employed
by you
In his Observations on the English Statutes cursory
enough says Judge Barrington must have been that
state of society, in which a question to this effect
could be put without design or apprehension of giving
offence. [+] +☞ Correct by reference

human destiny.]

So now calling a man
a Barrister — that is
the indiscriminate
defender of right & wrong
no insult.
Art. 26 "You are at of the Bar, Sir, if I do not
"mistake." is a question which in England or the United States now a days a
gentleman may with as little fear of giving offence put
to any other gentleman whom he meets. Your are
of the Bar — that is to say the indiscriminate defence
of right and wrong is your occupation and that for here is your profession and
for the purpose of that occupation falshood — self-conscious falshood is an instrument
which without stint and without scruple you are
in the continual habit of employing.

In existing state of things
this necessary but what
is not necessary that
from these advocates be chosen
the Judges
Art. 27 Thus it is in the existing order of things
and thus of necessity, in every order of things — it must
at all times continue to be.
But that which is not of necessity is that for fittin
the situation of Judge the individuals chosen selected should be taken: taken
in every instance
no, nor so much as
in any single instance.
