Dispatch Court.
§ 5. Procedure
exemplified.
36 Mandate to whom
directed

Of a certain number of mandates
or say Precepts, the issuing has been predetermined.
Persons to whom directed, the several individuals to
whom in whatever capacity — demandants, defendants
extraneous witnesses or other evidence-holders the Judge
proposes to give hearing, at the same sitting, on the
same day.

Suits several destined
for one sitting more
than one

Suits, thus destined to be brought on, at
the same sitting, more than one. For, upon the face of
the dispatch of which one and he same sitting will
suffice: just as it is in Small Debt Courts.
Example suits brought
for mere delay under
mendacity licence system
Among these will be all those, of which it has
been manifest, that it was for delay only
that they were brought. Action-stopping Injunction
Bills, for example — Appeals — and Writs of Error: —
in no small proportion all these. To form a pretence
for the delay, uttered upon paper, (it will be have been seen) has been this or that
one of those appropriate lies, in which, the mendacity licence
being known to have been granted to them, are according
to custom so regularly uttered by the professional
assistant of dishonest suitors, and accordingly so regularly pretended by
Judges to be regarded as having been meant for truths:
these same reverend persons and their brethren of the
profession sharing with in the profits of the delay with the
wrong doer, in whose mendacity they have had the
share, which by subornation (as the term in that case is,) is taken in perjury. by subornation of the same.

In dispatch Court
responsibility substituted
to impunity

In the Dispatch Court, that license is would
of course be withdrawn: substituted to impunity
would be is effectual responsibility: mendacity would of course, for the most part now vanishes:
veracity takes its place. For the confession which now can not but be made of the lie,
quantity of time necessary not greater than for the utterance
of the word Guilty by the criminal, malefactor, whose mind
all the endeavours of the Judge who tries him have proved
insufficient to sink in the depths of depravity
to so low a level as that of the Judge. reverend arbiter
of his fate.
