Offences against
Property — Publi
Public Insurance

The best footing things would be upon would be
for the amerciaments to be got from "Malefactors
to make amends for the mischief done by Malefactors.

The next best thing would be for it to be made
up by the Public For a very small premium Individuals would then be insured
from by the public from damage by Malefactors as now they
are may be from Fire Fire

Let a flag be hung out to give notice when a Judge has
culprits under examination.

Fielding

Over the door of the Black or Grey Prison put figures
of men suffering under the lash with agonizing countenances
like those over Bethlehem Hospital.

— — — nor in ordinary crimes will any mischief be produced
to any body, but to the criminal

Engraved representations
of the Punishments.

In the whole sheet abstract, let the letter
press be bordered with representations of the several punishments.
Let one prison serve as a symbol for
the confinement of Theft &c. two prisons for the
double confinement for Robbery &c.

Evidence
Self-condemnation

Fair play — But a criminal prosecution is neither a
Fox-chase nor a boxing-match.

Evidence 15
Two witnesses not to be conclusive.

Incapacitation of evidence is a license to every person
to committ all sorts of crimes in the pursue presence
of the person incapacitated: The establishing the testimony
of any soy-distant eye witnesses not labouring under any
incapacity as conclusive proof of an offence is to a
license to any two such persons to subject any one they
please to any sort of punishment

16
Excuses, when
not to be notified.

Where a duty may by accident become impracticable,
no need of notifying entering into detail in detail at the passage which prescribes the
duty, the allowance made on the score of the impossibility
such notification would serve only to abate diligence. As where
a thing is required to be done within three days. See Ordonce. Crim.
