PROCEDURE INFORMATION.

1 One disadvantage if an the proceedings be Information is that there is no
method of compelling that evidence which by which the motion for
leave to commence it must be supported — The Prosecutor
Affidavit is read, perhaps that of another witness, & of
a third: by then it appears that B, D, & have Substitutes
could were in such situation as to be to be added to give a still much more perfect account of the
Transaction — All this while C. was a neighbour
who having no quarrel with the Deft, cared not, D,
a defendant who dared not, a friend who would
risk himself on the side of the Prosecution.

Their silence itself
is a matter apparent
upon the face of the proceedings,
& therefore
open to inference and
favor of the innocence of the
accused the cause of that silence
which if known
would destroy the inference,
is a matter
extraneous to the proceedings,
of which commonly no
legal proof from it's very
nature of things, can be
given, nor if it could given
would be received

The question is not but who is whose Friend.

consumed in Costs
