June 1804
Procedure

2. False end the 2d Profit to the Judge.
To the exercise of military power force alone is necessary.
He who stands not in need of fraud, disdains to exercise it.
In the exercise of judicial power to by the application of it to private
ends, force found in fraud a necessary assistant. The
power of the Monarch being in those days unlimited and yet feeble feeble and precarious –
no standing army to support it – the exertions of his retainers
on the occasion of each suit in the field of judicature might have been overborne opposed
and rendered unproductive, of neutrality, at least, and on great
occasions, more or less assistance had not been to be obtained expected from
the surrounding chieftains. The necessity of justice to the
peace of individuals is so continually displaying itself, that
some more or less regard to it, where no sinister interest or raging passion
is in the way to stifle it interferes starts up to smother it, has ever been fond even in the most
uncultivated minds. Every man in seeing what to him seems justice done
upon or in favour of another others, sees, although it be as through a glass darkly, his own advantage: every
man in a contrary proceeding procedure sees in like manner his
own danger.
