19 May 1805
Evidence

Wheresoever, by being assured of the relative indigence and consequent
defencelessness of his adversary, a man may be sure of
succeeding in his suit, he has no need to trouble himself about
the justice of his cause: a cause which he knows to be unjust
will in this case give him at least as full an assurance of success, as he
could choose from the justice of the most clearly just cause.
In this way the arrangement holds out invitation to malâ fide
suitors to malâ fide defendants to mala fide demandants
always on condition of their opulence finance, and multiplies ad infinitum
the number of mala fide defences and demands, in this way
the judge renders himself the rewarder, the encourager, the accomplice
of iniquity, in all its shapes in every imaginable shape is to be found in the
person of the judge.

In some cases it will happen, that the person individual thus excluded
from the station of demand, is a person on whose part an appropriate
demand, in this case termed a prosecutor was necessary
to the punishment of some offence, raised by punishment or
public indignation to the rank and appellation of a crime. In
all those cases the J this way it is that for a by the means
of art for the sake of such his fees, we may see the Judge rendering the renders himself the
reward, the encourager, the accomplice of every imaginable crime the worse of crimes.
