III Rationale
Ch. Quasi Jury
S. Explany Observato<hi rend="superscript">ns
II Discarded Features
117.
II. Hollow features pregnant
with evil opposite
to collateral end of
justice.
12. Evil. 1. Needless vexation
or expence, or
both, from needless
magnitude of their
number: viz
1. Actually serving in
each suit, 12.
2. Obligatorily attending
for all the suits, 48.
In Quasi Jury, both
numbers minimized.
118.
3. Challenging, a further
enhancement of
the evil: viz 1. to polls
2. to array. Definitions
as to both, presently.
119.
4. Further eventual
vexation, imposable
by any juror on the
rest, the lasting for the
extortion of the perjurious
consent.
120.
Challenge to the array,
compared with cases
where admitted, do. when
not admitted, are a
mockery of justice.
Admitted between A
and B: not between
King and B. By King's
Locatee, the Sheriff
private relationship,
compared with
do. from King
thus
---page break---
120 contind.
Thus per Lawyer's own
principle, as above,
verdict for King has
corruption for it's cause.
121.
Particularly where the
jury is special: in
Middlesex, locator crown
office master, creature
of the judge, and dependent
in possession or
expectancy on the King.
122.
In special jurymen,
further cause of partiality
to Monarch and
Aristocrat by the pay
given to them, selected
for their opulence,
while none is given
to the most indigent
[Add common jurymen
compelled —
special do. not] as
if partiality to their
own class was not
sure enough without
this bribe.
123.
Till lately the bribe
was more barefaced
one guinea when
verdict was against
the King, two when for
him. This practice
may be removed
at any time.

124.
Anglicé — more gained
than elsewhere by
judges by corruption.
Elsewhere, it is by
law in all forms
punishable: here, in
the most valuable
forms sanctioned.
125.
For corruption in
any shape in high
functionary, Defendant,
in case of prosecution,
would have
his partners in it
for judges.
126.
Self-confessed peculator
for £10,00, Lord
Melville was pronounced
not guilty
upon the honor of a
majority of his noble
judges. Self-confessed
notwithstanding the
clause inserted by Attorney
General
in an Act for excluding
in that case
that evidence.
