Decr 1806
Scotch Reform To Ld Grenville

At very even every step, I take, my Lord, I find myself
attached by the ridicule that attaches on the attempt to
prosecute prosecute and try by the rules of justice, practices
that never could have recognized any such authority as that
of Justice. In find a plea to the jurisdiction, opposing itself as
a bar to every step.

This infinity in the series of Representations and shillings, if the
scene of it lay in the Inner House, there would might be a
somewhat more colourable a better coloured cloak for it. Escaped out of this Court
the cause will have a long way to travel journey to take, all the way from
Edinburgh to London, good Your Lordships hear us once
more, save us so long a journey if it possible. No such
thing: in the Inner House, mathematical stock enough has
been found to render the series finite: it is in the Outer
House alone only that it remains infinite. Dissatisfied with what
has been done in the Outer House, raise your voice a little
and without having a stop to stir for it, you might be heard
in the Outer Inner House. One series may be finite: but
first there must be an infinite one.

One reason perhaps may be this. Had the Inner House been the scene Were the longer series
of the longer series, the task of lengthening it would have required
the concurrence of the "whole Lords" while the shillings
would either have been to be divided pulverized into its parcels, or more
probably gone into some one pocket into which there was no
opening but into the pocket of some one of the learned foresaids. But
in the Outer House, the shillings full go as plump into the
pocket of an Officer called the Lord Ordinary's Clerk,
through which there is opens a perpetually unclosed a foramen ovale constantly opening into that of his learned Master.
