CERTAINTY FEOFAILS
As all those contrivances by which Justice is eluded, sporting arise out of some stage or other of
the Judicial proceedings, the order of those proceeding will afford us [the most] a simple & natural
track course of investigation. Passing this along we shall see how the weakness of the Law is

may arise to frustrate [execution] it's operation the purposes of the Law within the interval of these two Periods.
