My Lord
I am now arrived at the 2d of the three topics announced
in the opening of my first the first of theseletters: viz:
Omissions: things containing which, according to my humble
conception of the matter, ought to have been proposed in a
Bill Plan having for its object "the better regulating the Courts of Justice in
"Scotland and the Administration of justice in Scotland in Scotland therein"
and in the Bill Plan in question are not proposed.
As to my those Omissions, were the catalogue of them here given to be
given compleat, Your Lordship understands already that
it would include every arrangement by which the technical
plan system of procedure, differs from according to the mode of it
in use in Scotland differs from the natural mode: in a
word almost every arrangement from by which the procedure of the Court
of Sessions differs – I can not say crudely and simply
from the procedure of the Scotch Small Debt Courts and English
Courts of Conscience, but what would be the procedure if
there scale of uncorrupted justice were their field of jurisdiction
co-extensive with that of the regular, the technical Courts –
with the Court of Sessions at the their head.
