34. Imprisonment without Bail or mainprize + When the Imprisonment is in Execution, that repetition of these
is unnecessary. Baltolgu
35. v. 32.23
35. The Stat. 31st G.E.c.62.§5 & 6. is an instance of an exquisite piece of confusion generated by the former method. — It takes up an entire page in describing a Statute which it is kinder to perpetuate, and when all is done, it so desecrates it, than any one as one who had not turned to the it Statute itself could concede but that it was two different Statutes that it was describing — the whole thread of the Syntax is so shattered broken by doublings & turnings, that it is one's own plainly the writer's head was turned giddy before he came to the end of it.
35.2.23. 32. Repealing by description & not by reference specification <add>numeration </add> to title a practice so common at
present & so much to be lamented.
The 1st Ed. 6. ch. 12 §.3. is a very commendable instance of the contrary.
This comes from nothing but that the penners do not chuse to give themselves the trouble to tun turn
over the Statute-Book
By means of this, no private hand can venture to separate the obs repeated from those
in force; & the Law continues encumber'd with them all.
36.
36 By the ____ of G..... the penalties therein specified are directed to be recover'd by su auch
methods whereby penalties established by any Excise Laws are recover'd — But which are they they?
Each unhappy bonder is sent to hunt all over the Statute Book at his peril in order
to know what one trouble of the composer by the trouble of one search might
have told him without any.

Retraxit Conclusive || || 1 Wilson 90 & Jacob's Dicty. Title Nolle Prosequi Nonsuit & Judgmt in Demarror enumerated alone in 7 & 8.W.c.9. [Also by Nolle Orosaqui. Non conclusive
By the general general mode of expression alone, the effect of the Provider will be best apprehended
by the people: but it will not appear sufficiently precise to men of the , to exclude
a latitude of in all judicial interpretation, nor to supersede the necessity of preserving the judicial interpretation
at a new standard distinct & requisite for future decisions — By the specific alone, this
would be guarded against, but this provision would fail in the being apprehended facility of apprehension by
the people — By the insertion of both together one after the other in the same sentence, the nominative article
would be too far separate from its verb, & the stile would fall into the vice of prolixity. || v. 5 Geo. 1st c. 15. §3. where the Retraxit is omitted.
