4 Observations
if priority is to be his sole guide, is here is a way open to him
to give turn the scale in favour of which of the two parties
he pleases. He learns hears unauthoritatively of the two warrants
that are to be issued, and if contrives to be out of the
way when that which he chooses not to obey is likely
to be first that is forwarded to him authoritatively, contrives
to be out of the way, and to post himself so as to
receive the other. Again if At any rate to make the
circumstance of priority decisive in point of validity between two such warrants
would be to establish a precarious and indecent scramble
for jurisdiction. Yet that is the circumstance which it
seems full as probable an High-Constable, if indifferent,
would govern himself by, as that of number.

Two meetings are accordingly holden in consequence.
One set of Publicans get licenses at one, and another
at another; of which in such circumstances, those it is
probable would be licensed at the one, that would be rejected
at another. Are the licenses granted at both places meetings
valid, or both void, or those granted at one, & which
valid, while and then at the other void. It is now

closing it are obvious. One is for the Law to appoint a day time ar-
