Devices

or 1.
1. Device 1.
1. Parties excluded.

2.
Only by indirect means
this feasible.

3.
Absurdity portentous:
Light none let in but
through an absorbing
and distorting medium.
Evidence from the best
source excluded.

4. Purpose
Sole purpose, deception.
This, in a father of a
family, lunacy.

5. Result.
Note how adverse this
to the ends of justice;
to those of Judicature,
how necessary.

6.
Parties admitted, each
at the earliest, each
bringing forward what
soever is for his advantage
– the whole of the
case is brought to view
at once: each prevents
the other from concealing
any part.

7. Sincerity Secured.
To lying no facility
or indulgence.

8.
As to sincerity, evidence
afforded by
voice, gesture and
deportment.

9.
Party within the
grasp of the Judge,
ready to be made to

or misconduct.

Devices

10. Communication
Communication
with him throughout
the suit securable.
Low craft reverses this.

11.
Under senistiously
interested substitutes
all this is reversed.

12. Falquations
Natural impossibility
in some cases
no reason for factitious
in any other.

13. Excepting in Penali
Cases to which the
exclusion extended
not: penal cases in
which the exclusionists
would have been
all the worse for it.

II. Devices II.

Language unintelligibilized:
by this was
division 1. the exclusion,
accomplished.

2.
More difficult than
direct may seem the
indirect mode: but
the language shows
the contrary.

3.
1. To English speaking
succeeded French speaking
Judges.
2. To English French
Judicatories – one insufficient
3. To English sufficient
local judicatories –
one insufficient French
which stript them
all of this power.
4. To English popularity
Conqueror's absolutism.

4.
Under Norman French
speaking King, were
appointed French speaking
Judges.

5. Itinerantly
King perpetually on
the move, so with
him were the Judges.

6. Itinerantly
To this train would
have to add himself
every man who had
complaint to make.

7.
To both, the only language
the Judge could
speak or hear was
unintelligible.

7*
As in British India
now, so in England
then: except that for
towards enabling suitors to understand
what is going
forward some exclusions
are apparent in these means,
were in these.

8.
Necessary thence, sets
of helpmates two:
1. Interpreters.
2. Advocates.

9.
Closely allied, brethren
& so stiled, Advocates
and Judges.

10.
Between them, Suitor's
property being taken
possession of
was divided.

11. Itinerantly Evocation
By this metropolitan
yet walking Judicatory,
swallowed up
was the small fixt
local ones.

12. Evocation
One case excepted,
in a Judicatory from
which, if the termination
was about to
be in his disfavour,
the suit would be
would not be commenced.

13. Evocation
Excepted case. A
man determined to
ruin an adversary,
and risk enough, might
commence a suit
below to evoke it.

14. Evocation
Evocation was thus
more maleficent than
Appeal.
