Evidence Introd.

§. 8. V. In a train, principal and posterior act; probative any prior.

E. conversòin this series in a series of the
same sort – or in the same individual series, by the existence of an antecedent, not what
probability is afforded of the existence of the a consequent
article? – In this case, the degree of probative force and correspondent probability will
present itself immediately, as sunk to a much lower
degree on the scale. Be the course of action what it may, – lawful or unlawful, – by consummate acts inchoate
are rendered much more probable, than by inchoate consummate.

Supposing In every series of this sort, suppose the articles
as they occurr consigned to entered upon a Register, and that Register
kept with that the regularity of which instrument a document
of this sort is susceptible, and which the importance of
it demands, the indications, afforded by it to this purpose,
would, by on being presented in numbers, afford
still more substantial for
to judicial decision a still more substantial basis than is
afforded
in the case of maritime Insurance is afforded
by the list of arrivals, compared with the list
of policies.

On the English Law-Report Books, cases exemplificative
of this reversed series are present themselves to be found in no
inconsiderable number: but if any instance of recourse made to any such numer mathematical
the
numerical and mathematical ground of decision,
no expectation would be satisfied in very abundantly satisfied, nor (it should seem) very naturally entertained. ☞ Consult the postings in this view

On In a case of this sort, on what ground then is it in that the decision has been formed?
itself? – The question is easily put proposed; – the answer not altogether so
easily returned.
