1826. April 4.
Penal Code
B.1. Gen Titles
Ch. IV. Instruments of Delinquency
2
§. 2
Cases where acts would
not be offences without
the employment of
instruments of
delinquency. Case of
competition for the
matter of good, by
deception

In no one of these instruments is there
anything that renders them exclusively capable
of being employed to evil yo the exclusion
of good purposes cause and reason; but the use of the
mention required on this occasion
to be made of them is, that, in many
cases, an action, which if no one of them
were employed in it would not be productive
of wrong is by the employment given,
to some one or more of them, rendered productive
of that effect; such for example is the
case in that perpetual and universal
warfare of competition between man and
man of which the matter of good in all
shapes, is the perpetual subject matter,
throughout the whole field of human action.
Of these instruments, the one most extensively
employed is deception, which instrument
has for its instruments four, distinguished
by the four following names to wit —
3
Deception by
1 Simple falsehood
2 Perjury
3 Forgery
4 Personation
1. Simple falsehood
2 Perjury
3. Forging
4. Personation. as the several offences

came to be brought to view, it will be seen how it
is, that be employment given to an instrument
of deception in any one of these forms wrong
is produced in a case in which, not for the employment
of the instrument in question, no wrong would be produced.
