What is the consequence of all this accumulation of trouble delay and expence.
Thus it is that the great obstacles stumbling-blocks to the
exeuction of the laws that beset the threshold of justice, trouble delay and expence
have accumulated. The consequence is inevitable
Access to it is rendered impracticable to the body of the people
What is the consequence of all this accuulation
of delay trouble discouragements and expence? [the inexecution
of the laws.] that the machine of the law has nobody can find to put it in motion. give it motion. When all that a man
had to do was to go [to the Judge at once] and
tell his story what he had seen , a small matter was sufficient to
pay him for his trouble. [Where lawyers were to
be paid, a higher reward was necessary] In proportion
as the discouragements encreased, so it was necessary it was necessary
should the encouragements the offers should rise in order to have any chance of
being accepted. Yet the let the offers be ever so high
the expence of the venture taking all the items into the account, is become so great when coupled with the
uncertainty of success, is become so great that the
wonder is how it ever should be embarked in
Few indeed are the instances in which it is embarked
in: nor would it in any but a very few again of those
few, if the adventurer prosecutor knew as much of the
matter as his attorney lawyers : if the adventurer in this lottery
knew as well as the attorney does what the price will
be
