Accommodation Whoever should say that lawyers, I mean
English lawyers are constantly averse to accommodation
would do them great injustice.
There is a certain period in of a cause in which
rapacity gives place regularly to benevolence.
It is upon the opening or a little after the
opening of a trial. It is at the end of months
or years, when the whole catalogue of artificial
expences has been exhausted, when the Advocates
have received their last fees, and when
the Jury are met, in readiness to have been
given their decision had they been permitted.
In this stage, with the greatest in the midst of a flow of candour and
good humour on all sides the cause goes
off from a trial by Jury to a trial by
Arbitrators. Whether The suitor being now
for the first time admitted to the beatific
vision, if peradventure he choose to enjoy it,
the presence of his Judge, may now learn for 'the first time what
his Attorney could have told him from the first,
that it is altogether in the wish but not at
all in the power of that or any that Judge to do him justice.
