Observations.
The only safe proper hand for placing it in, seem to be those
of all the Justices for the whole County in General
Sessions; to which persons of all parties have access:
and where, tho' the reasons for establishing a given
set of regulations in a given Hundred should be local,
should be peculiar to that Hundred, yet the propriety
of those reasons may be debated in a more public and promiscuous
company. assembly.
No instances it may be said are known, where
the power, lodged where as it is at present, has been
abused. Very likely not. I know of none. no report of any. If I did
it would not be safe to mention them. I would not mention them. It would not be safe [It might be
false; and then it would be a libel: or it might be true
and then it would be a worse.] Safe or not safe certainly it
would not be necessary. "No harm done yet," is the
constant common objection urged plea against all provident
regulations; and as futile as it is common.
