Suits in pendency Dispatch Court
H. of Commons Defends
§. Precedent

So much as to the proceeding in relation to the matter of
fact.

6
So much as to matter
of fact — as to matter
of law see §. Objections
answered

Now as to the proceeding in relation to the matter of law.
In §. Objections answered. A principle here is the
principle maintained by argument: namely that in this particular
and extraordinary state of things can no such evil ever have place as with more or less reason
is, and immovably would be apprehended in the ordinary
state of things: namely an evil not in any case other
than the evil of the 1st order: danger and alarm of misdecision
in favor from regard to precedent.

12 or 1
Common law suits
names of species may
be found in the Court
books If so, obtainable
by House of Commons order

In the case of a Suit at Common Law the name
of the species of suit may be expected to be found in the
Books of the several Clerks belonging to the several Courts: as
for example Debt, Ease, Trespass, Ejectment and so forth. If so,
these might be obtained by Order from
the Committee of the House of Commons, sent to the several Courts

13 or 2
Not so Equity suits —
As to these, Solicitor to
bring with him the
prayer part of the bill

Not so in the case of a suit in Equity. As to
suits of this description, no otherwise than through the medium
of the Solicitor could would any conception of the nature of the
suit be obtainable: and, even w through this medium,
the obtainment of such conception might in some instances
be attended with some difficulty. The Prayer part of the
Bill would is a demand which the Solicitor might be
and should be ordered to bring with him. Seldom would
it amount to more than one or at most two octavo pages

14 or 3
Plaintiff's bill would
in some sort speak for
itself but Answers to
Committee by Defendant
Solicitor also frequently
necessary

True it is that in some sort the Bill filed by
the Plaintiff would speak for itself. But for explanations in
relation to it, answers by the Plaintiff Solicitor to questions
put to him by the Committee are would frequently be necessary. Now, would
the same still afford any information as to the place of residence
of any of the several parties would the same Bill afford any adequate
information.
