3 Carigan's Argument
In the endeavour to persuade the public that the
evil is in its nature incurable and that, for that reason
no imputation can justly attach upon any class
official or professional of the lawyer tribe law brotherhood in quality
Of authors of it one line of argument is taken up and
employed by all defenders in its actual state the
threefold evil delay vexation and expense is composed
of two parts perfectly distinguishable one of them
Cr
that same untoward nature of things the other is the
product of sinister interest hence of this same threefold
mass of evil two every where distinguishable parts: one
the natural and unavoidable the other factitious and avoidable
of the disorder two corresponding parts one the irremediable
the other the remediable what the artifice in
question consists in is the holding up to view and displaying
upon the table as it were in a map or chart the
natural and incurable part keeping at the same time
out of sight as completely as it is in the power of
silence to do with the exception of a curtailment or
two as above mentioned every thing that is factitious
removable and curable
The writer in whose hands this instrument of deception
works best is Mr Carigan. Opening the pages of
Lord Redesdale's pamphlet his name not being on the
title page though made no secret of at the bookseller's
we the first two or three pages preclude all doubt about
the age but considerable doubt remained about the gender.
