Review of Humphreys
§ J.Bs and H's language as to
Judges &c
Redesdale
Law and equity both
unanswerable
Such being the promises, what then is the conclusion? discard
the antiquated compleatly and confessedly unapt system of
Procedure, and substitute a new one? a new one deduced from the
greatest happiness principle and suited to the present improbably future
state of things? Oh, by no more the as quite out of the question
Why? because such is the garrulity of the age the substitution of a
Code free from surplusage to a Code composed of surplusage, is
by that same incurable garrulity rendered imprintiable
Such th it is blunt in a car drawn by Lord Redesdale Lord Eldon and under above
him or under him Goddess Common Law and Goddess Equity
in athe case done by Lord Redesdale are borne triumphantly
over the necks of the whole host of adversaries, present,
past, and future.
—
Lord Eden Eldon were he ever be ripen into an old
woman, would still have a mind of all work eminently will give
for doing the dirty work of Cabinets.
—
Equity does not so much as pretend to do every thing:
and the comparatively likely though absolutely so excessive what she
does - every body who has to do with her sees and feels how she
does it. Common Law pretends to do every thing being in a
in Blackstone assizes or "no right without a remedy" Common Law
pretends to do every thing, and besides that whatsoever she does is done so
badly, half the things she pretends to do a perfection she does not
so much as pretendattempt to meddle with.
Servants for person? On condition of being in to tell upon page a story
of notorious she tells without so much asa of enquiry deigning to have a syllable
she sells the liberty of whose mothers to and the for actual whoever will pay the price
the price for it
Security for reputation? apply to him for remedy for remedy shewhich
sells you is an exacerbation of the disease
