6. Proper Course
Witnesses and Co-pursuers
as it may happen,
necessary at any
rate will be a day for
attendance of Defendant.

7. Mischief Absurdities Attendance
But of his abode, the
distance from the Judgment
seat may be a
stone's throw, or 300
miles.
Yet by Judge & Co. the
same day has been appointed for all distances.

8. Absurdities Attendance
For simple attendance,
comparatively short
may be the interval
appointed.

9. Absurdity Pleading
Not so, where the operation
to be performed
is the drawing up and
delivering in a written
instrument, a pleading
as per device II. Varied
indefinitely will be the
time requisite by the
quantity of writing and
various other circumstances
– Notice sufficient
may be afforded
by one day's interval
not by two months.
As infinity to one the
chances in each case

What if the residence
be at the antipodes?
India, Australia or
Peru – the individual
being an indispensable
witness.

11. Origin
Natural and necessary
result the blind
fixation of the exclusion

12. Motive Use to Judge
Now in the consequences,
see Judge and
Co's motive for the
institution.
1. Time needlessly long:
use delay with it's casual
profits, as per
Device IV: too short, consequence, demand
for enlargement, with
shower of fees.

13. Use to Judge
Requisite for enlargement
a motion, with
affidavits of facts for
support: thus come
fees: motion contested,
more fees.

14. Use to Judge
Motion a suit within
a suit: the needless
inserted suit
more expensive than
the vast majority of
needful ones.

15. Use to Judge
Understand motion
not of course. Motion
of course, instrument
of extortion on false pretences:
sharers, Attorney,
Advocates, Judicial officers,
Judge.
