appears to be guilty should turn out to be innocent.
Such contrarity never happens but in consequence of
some accidental error which is rather uncommon not very common
or of an instance of a species of depravity which is
happily much more less so.
When such a contrarity happens to manifest

fallacious in the appearance of first map of evidence
that happens to present itself: to something
fallacious in the appearance of circumstantial evidence,
or to some want of observation some error

taking of a temporary precaution in order that
lest the means of conviction in case of guilt should
escape the reach of justice or the ceremony of conviction or the conviction become be rendered ineffectual
to the its purpose of producing punishment.

to ground conviction though it were to stand uncontradicted
is sufficient to warrant a commitment. The
