CERTAINTY - Summary Trials INCONGRUITY False Assumptions

It is in observation of an ingenious † † Barrington p., that the Statutes book being being any less regardable consider'd as
the work of one & the same Author; & may therefore be applied with profit & propensity
to the illustration of each other - This observation may be true as far as it goes to for the particular purpose for which he wrote
it, but seems to have a very questionable foundation if taken in another view.[+]
[+]
It is rare indeed, if an
Author who writes with tolerable
attention does not know what
too has beenwritten before by himself
on the same subject:
but instance when one Legislator
has given very unequivocal
marks of his not knowing
what has been written before
him by another, are frequent
to a degree which affords matter
for [some admiration surprize &] more
concern indeed than surprize.
Nothing indeed can exceed the reluctance which appears on as many occasions to
in the various Authors who have contributed to that heterogeneous collection
of examining and satisfying themselves of what has been searching out and acquainting themselves with the coefficient labors of their predecessors
a reluctance, which must can do no less than increase every day with that Immensity [& confusion
which is it's cause.

It is from hence [& from the very slender portion of critical examination discussion
& methodization which the Statute book; has hitherto been bestowed upon] That many inventions have so
to speak, finished or slept at least with the Inventor: many a fewer advantageously applied to
the setting of further the operation of a part of the great machine, which mightcapable of being applied
with advantage to many others [beside] has been neglected & forgotten nor
any accurate & comprehensive/systematic master of those forces seem to have been yet attempted or so much as thought
on.

The many wheels which
(different in those from
their emblems in a great variety & are jointly
employed to set give in motion to
the great engine/machine wheel of Punishments which is
immediately employed in the
crushing of obnoxious practices.

Now Now this inconvenience would be abrogated removed for ever, if the whole of every subject that could ever come
into consideration at once were presented , to those who might have occasion to it,
one view; without their being subjected at every turn to the drudgery of dipping in at
for the scatter'd remnants parts fragments of every each subject into the vast & variegated heap mass. —

If the different pieces of those the hang on which are at any time of the executive apparatus ( in the Summary
& Regular) were number'd & collected: those that are applied with to every principal Law
the same manner lodged apart where they may be found: those that are applied to one some principal Law
& not to others or applied to different ones in a different manner lodged in their several names under the each principal Law to which respectively
are applied: the Principal Laws, on this hand, to be collected into classes, the Titles
of which shall be taken from the denominations of persons to which they respectively relate
