Ch. Justiciaby Engl. Law

Informer — this not
a remedy, operating or
intended to operate, as
such for the benefit of
the suitor

After the extract from Tedd 135.

A review of this detail will suggest to a reader, of such a man be to be formed who to the
intelligence necessary to the extraction of the import any idea of it, adds the
[public ] spirit and patience necessary to carry him through it, tapies
of for admiration rising upon admiration: — the profligacy and effrontery of any
lawyer of the placeman/of the time server is man of law who seeing the system in its true light or that of a
contrivance for dividing among a confederacy of lawyers and official professional and official placemen
men the remaining pittance of the miserable, for a should profess pretend
to look view upon it, is a light less dishonourable to those who have
it in their power to redress amend it: the folly the the blandness the more than simplicity — of
any lawyer, any man professional or non-professional if the such there could be — who could should it it
in the light of a remedy, bona fide intended to serve
as such, and behoved to operate as such, for the benefit of the
suitors.

Let him think reflect that this which is here displayed is but
a part — a fragment — one part in two or three or four of the whole
grievance — that if the other parts are omitted not of their detriment only referred to and not
quoted — not as being less applicable, but under an impression of
despondency — despairing the despair of being able to suppose that the bill can could
escape being dishonoured, which as thus drawn upon his patience.

12
It is no more
necessary or coincidence
to the purposes of justice
in the cases where it is
those where it is not
employed.

Let him reflect observe that all this stupendous mass of complication
is so much sheer pure abuse, completely unnecessary and therefore as
completely adverse to all the purposes of justice: for that the business
being to make the most of the effects of an absconding debtor an insolvent debtor for the benefit
of his creditors, that the necessity of it is no greater, the practice
for employing it is not better in the case cases where the process of outlawry
has been made issuable against him, there where no such process has
been appointed.
