1824 Decr. 3
Procedure Code

Ch. Means of execution
(2 §. Mode of agency

Art. In the case of things the mode of operation
is mechanical plain and easy: so likewise in the case of
persons in so far as the faculties necessary to be operated
upon are no others than those physical ones in respect
of which their case is not distinguishable from the case of things.

Art When the nature of the case requires that
the faculties operated upon should be be the active, and to that
effect the sensitive, then starts rises up the great mass of difficulty.
Then it is that one the part of the person in question
whatever be the result requisite to be produced, compliance
appropriate compliance is necessary: compliance with regard
to mandate and injunction — or to use the word more agreeable
to the case of pain, obedience; though in truth obedience is but
one mode of compliance: and the case requires that to this ever
so many modes they should every one of them be brought to view

So far as as the active faculty and the compliance
which belongs to it are out of the question forthcomingness on the part
of the subject matter operated upon, forthcomingness in the physical
sense. Such conjunct pressure on the part of the same operator and the
subject matter of the operator are necessary. In this case forthcomingness
is employed in the literal sense. But when in so far as mind is
the subject matter operated upon, forthcomingness is not in the
literal corporal sense necessary: by an operator stationed in London
operation and that with purpose of producing compliance effectual, may be performed upon a mind stationed
in Van Diemen's land.

In so far as by mind in one place, though it is by
mind in ever so widely distant a place, mind in another place
though it be ever so widely distant a place is capable of being operated
upon, especially if with effect — with the effect of producing compliance
a sort particularity of forthcomingness — forthcomingness in a particular sort
may
may be considered as
having place: the forthcomingness
in this shape
call virtual forthcomingness:
in the other
and and more ordinary
shape, physical forthcomingness.
