Art. Lawyers interest in corrupting public minds – in
multiplying wrongs, to multiply suits.
Supposing it their endeavours to to understanding as matter in
to could they have taken any more effectual course? Negative
Judges could not responsibly have in nor could new
In that position of whence but for this indifference of the people.
That a system of procedure thus fabricated and
by those hands, matters are so ordered that without
joining in the utterances of his his after he without number,
neither plaintiff nor defendant can stir up a step
neither in the one station side of the cause nor in the other cannot is a man
more ever admitted to take his chance for justice any is a man permitted to take any the smallest chance
for justice.
All this without the smallest use to justice on any
an occasion whatsoever. If lying were necessary to
justice, if it were even subservient, then would it
indeed be what those lawyers assume to themselves
a power of causing it to be, a virtue.
Lying is a word which by the use made
of it contracted such foulness, as not to be
applied to every untruth, to every falshood without . But to its application the application given to it
here, the only objection is a that that can be made
is – that it is not foul enough.
