Fallacies
Preface

5 5

§. Offer to disapprovers

On this as on every other part of the field of thought
and action, my wish has been to see that useful truth —
on whichever side it may be of any controversy of which
it may have happened to be the subject may prevail:
[I say useful truth: for, of for no truth that except
in so far as in my eyes it is useful have I any care.]
Such is my wish My wish is that it may prevail — and so far as my
endeavours have ever employed themselves my endeavours
have been to cause it so to do. In pursuit
of this endeavour, as to what regards so far as regards the subject of the
work, the offer and invitation I give is this.

If in in prejudice of the conduciveness in opposition to the claim hope of usefulness of this
work to the purposes of truth and utility, by any sincere reader, whether in the character of disapprover
of parliamentary reform or in any other it be regarded
as in itself justly chargeable with a deceptious tendency,
this tendency will have its source either in some mis-statement error
in something or other that is said under the head on the subject
of one or more of the alledged fallacies, or in the
omission of some argument which is being really fallacious
is wont to be, or is capable of being employed with effect
on the other opposite side: some fallacious argument for example
which is in use or likely to be in use to be employed in
favour of parliamentary reform or in some other way on
the side of the interest real or supposed, of the greatest number
of the members of the community whatever it be.
