Observations
III. Licensing
§.7 8
§. 7. [ 1 ] [ Fresh place of Residence ]. p. 11. It is At
the old place of residence that the inquiry into
character should be instituted because there is the
place at in which information relative to that head
is to be procured: at the new place, because that is
the place in which alone an interest in the refusal
of the licence, supposing the party in of to be a person
of a dangerous character, exists.
§ [ ] [ Living out of the jurisdiction ]. p. 11 §. 19. [ 1 ] [ 65 ] Page 41. [ Examination of . . . persons living out of
the jurisdiction ]
§.19
65.
Powers given for
examining persons
living out of the
jurisdiction of the
licensing
This power of expedient for supplying those gaps in evidence
which are the result of a multitude of litt jurisdictions
each of them confined in point of place, would
be a very effective check upon the admission of
persons quitting places where they had lost their characters,
for others where they meant to merit a similar
loss: besides that evidence in favour of a p man's
character may as well happen to be confined to a
different and distant county, as evidence in disfavour
of it. And a provision to this effect will would be powerfully
assistant to, as well as be assisted by, the provision
proposed below for empowering the Board to order institute prosecutions
for Perjury in cases in which it is concerned.
It is for want of such means of general
intercommunication, that the jurisdiction of local
Justices so frequently proves lame, and inadequate
to the purpose: not only to the purpose of punishing the guilty
but to that of protecting the innocent against undue
punishment. Spending the Post for such purposes
would be attended with benefits unspeakable.
