1826 July 9 8
London Petition

We submitt to Your Honourable
House that all
assurance of the supposed
points ascribed to English
judicature and English
Judges as printed or
and belied
by the most notorious and
indisputable facts.

We are sure that in
the English corruption no where
there is established by
law that impunity for
it is implied, profit
by it enormous: and
we do not believe that
corruption is established in this or
any other form whether had

by law in any other
country as large
or of the extended world


---page break---

We observe that the
more when the system
and the Judges are
values now
without shame.
none of the facts when
stated are ever certain
to be denied.

as we
in a have
transferred so of
and
praise.


---page break---

We profess ourselves
unable to concur
in what possible form
corruption can be possibility
exist if it does
not exist in this.
nor in what other form it
can exist

nor if it does exist
in what other form
it can be productive of
mischief and human
suffering in so large a
mass as in this.

If corruption in favor
of an individual to
be projective of this or
that other individual
be called mischievous
and scandalous
we are unable to concur
how it should
fail to be mischievous
in proportion to the
numbers affected when
the whole number of
the members of the community
are divided
into two classes: are
composed of the parties
wronged by it, the presumably the other
of the parties
by it and the other
ten or twenty times
their number of the
comparatively parties wronged by it
justice in it has been have been
seized up in a few
words denied to the
vast majority of the
people and sold at
a enormous price sold to all besides.


---page break---

We cannot forgive to
ourselves a state of things
more replete with cause of just
cause of reproach to
those who uphold such
a system not to speak
of those who suffer it
