Procedure Constitutional Code

Ch. Evidence
3 §. what sufficient

5
Extent to which the
evil is actually carried

Such is the mischief evil capable of being done with
impunity by deficiency in appropriate moral aptitude. But how
far from censure so wicked an artifice may have been
nothing can be more distinctly common than than that species and degree of a deficiency
in intellectual and or active aptitude by which the same
disastrous de result is produced; think how common it
is for witnesses of all classes to be led aside from the path
of truth be without them being conscious of it by this affection:
Not to speak of non recollection and mis recollection how ill imperfectly qualified, especially those of the uneducated
classes are, the great bulk of maintained are — to distinguis
make the proper and necessary distinction between their
own actual perception and the inference drawn by them from these
same perceptions.

6
Under From proposed remedy
no evil can ensue

From By the here-proposed means of remedial arrangement dispatch
no evil in any shape can ensue be produced

7
Effect which may be
produced — that a pursuer
having two demands
may withhold the
most formidable for
the purpose of ensuring
the defendant's appearance

An effect which may be produced is this.
A person who has tw at the charge of matters has two demands
one to which the defendant would appear, another to which
he would not appear withholds the more formidable demand
issuing no other than the least formidable one, or what
comes to the same thing, or a demand which if I stated
compleatly would be a formidable one seeks the same circumstance
by which it would be rendered formidable But the of
this mere utterance or call it suppresses what is the evil
consequence? None whatever but on the contrary pure good:
the proposed defendant instead of eluding, is brought under within
the grasp of justice. Yes, if to the production of this effect, deception
as it can not be deemed to be mendacity in any shape was
employed. But to the use of no such foul instrument should
licence
licence in this case more
than in any other, be
conceded.
