Feby 1808

2. Evils 2d, 3d and 4th. Useless and Unnecessary and useless encrease
given to the triple knot of evils delay, vexation and expence.

If the cause is ripe for decision, then supposing him
prepared for pronouncing the decision, decision of the cause
were not this sent out of his hands, would be pronounced
immediately.

But when Sent upwards to into the Inner House superior judicatory
it comes in takes its place in the river of an indefinitely long list of causes
a list of about two years length at present, reckoning measuring
space by time.

When at length it takes its turn and happens to it to be taken into
consideration, whatsoever done has been done in relation
to it in the Court below, must take its chance of being
in the appointed every one each of the learned minds contained in the
superior judicatory Were In this superior judicatory, had
it but a single seat in it, and that filled by the most
capable able mind which the judicatory contains, here would
be so much time lost: and besides but this most capable mind has
to contend with the inferior whatsoever comparative want of
quickness and discernment made not to speak of probity
and good temper may be to be found in the whole circle
of his colleagues.

The more the cause wants of being having been brought to a stage in which it is ripe for decision
when thus taken out of his hands, the less it is true, is the
waste of time. But be the waste more or less, a cause can
never pass previously to decision out of the hands of one Judge into those of another,
without some such waste.
