Observations

It is common in most systems
of Jurisprudence to speak of some one offender
under the name of accessories or accomplices. Correspondent
also to this difference in point of name is
also commonly frequently no attended by a correspondent difference in
point of treatment; he who is stiled the principal being
commonly frequently treated with more severity than the
rest: not to mention a number of differences in the method of Procedure. In order to judge of the propriety of these distinctions settle the above question it will be
necessary therefore to settle in the first place what person what the offender is who is commonly
termed the principal, is, that is what relation his
act bears to the rest of the acts attendant on the obnoxious
event. and then lastly to determine whether there be
any and what reason for distinguishing in point of punishment from the rest the offender
so designed. To p. 8. No 2.
