The Justice being by the Act according to the
precedent in question empowered for the benefit of
the public to hold the Defendant to bail, it would
be a further improvement it should seem if in case of conviction, he were empowered for
the benefit of the ind Defendant himself, he were
empowered to accept of Bail from take Bail of him, conditioned for
either peremptorily for the payment of the
penalty within a time to be appointedlimited, or optionally
for either the payment of the bod money
or the surrender of the body.The use of this indulgence
would be the saving the offender from
the lossextra charge attending so expensive a proceeding
as that of Distress and Sale. Another worse indulgence
in the same view might be the permitting the time during which
the Distress is to be kept unsold to be enlarged under
either indefinitely or within certain limi limits
(by the existing Act 27 G2.c.20 a distress it can not be so
greater than 8 days) taken can not be kept above 8 days before sale) on
the an application signed by the defendent himself.
All charges added to the account it is much if
a parcel of goods sold in this way produce half
the money which it would cost to replace them: a
man might not be able to raise the money among
his friends in so short a time as eight days, or
much less immediately upon conviction, and yet
in the course of three weeks or a month he might
be able to raise it, and thereby save his life from
being doubted by distress in Sale. These however
are provisions which do not apply have no greater claim application to
the case of the present groups of offences than to
