1830 March 9
Penal CodeB. II. Offences Severally
Ch. Offences affecting person

Enactive

Art. Necessary to homicide or other body-affecting offence
may a person be by affording indication of any substance
or process as suitable to the purpose of producing death
or other bodily harm.

But to render criminal an act by which such indication
has been afforded, the design of the agent on that occasion
must have been to produce or say bring about
such death or bodily harm on the part in the instance of some individual
or determinate assemblage of persons.

Rationale.

Art. * Why? Answer. Because, were it otherwise any
medical men writing on the subject of poisons, as with a view of
preventing them from taking effect, might be punished as for wilful
homicide. For to learn as far as may be and teach how to prevent a force poison from
taking effect it will be necessary to administer poison to animals
of the classes inferior to the human – (the to the human so
must the better) for the purpose of by experiment the
means of cure: and of the means of curing or preventing the
disorder indication can not be given without indication given
of the means of producing it.
