parliament has by requiring the observance of this precaution set the an example in this behalf which
might be extended to the whole body of conveyancing
but which like so many other useful ideas that which
are to be met with being buried in the immense heap of rude material
that compose

in the English law might be picked up
here and there in the
immense body of the
English law
are lost confined in
a manner to the public to the narrow bands of the particular subject which happend to
have given them birth, and become lost in a manner
to the public carent quia vate sacro, for want
of being generalized and diffused improved
.

In the attestation of deeds it should seem that the
it might be of use, were the following precautions to be observed.

Instructions to the parties.

1. Two or three or even more where there can be their assistance
can be obtained
no without much difficulty should be preferred
to one. The more there are of them the less the
danger is of their concurring joining in a plan of prevarication,
and the greater the chance is of their
being some of them living and within call at any given period [and in readiness ready to make
their appearance in a court of justice.
to be called upon.

2. Choose such persons as upon occasion [Such should be chosen who] are most likely to
be within call: married persons for example, in general before [are accordingly to be
preferred to] single, husbandmen for example landsmen before to seafaring men, to masters of families to before servants, persons
in public characters such as the minister or
churchwardens of a parish to before persons not so distinguished,
healthy persons to before infirm, persons at an
early period of life to before such as in the common course
of things can have but a little time to live: and
men such as you are acquainted known with before such
as you are a stranger to are unknown to you : Choos Prefer likewise such as
appear to be least likely to be led into prevarication by any natural interest
of their own, as by any artificial inducement which may be offered to
them them by other any
body else.
