CERTAINTY EVIDENCE.
I am apt to suspect that the discovery of the Truth owes very little to these Rules which have
been established much less than is commonly imagined.
Multitude of Criminals acquitted
in the Sessions Paper a proof
justice may be contrasted with
all the evidence however
that can be alleged against a Criminal
- & that their hands should
not be fetter'd by any rules
for the rejecting evidence.
Il suffit de deux témoins
&c says Voltaire
If 2 nay if one witness
did not suffice you would
have no body ever convicted punished shall
you might shut up your courts
by 1/4 of Justices, 1/2 & 1/4 proofs, a witness
might spawn as many as he
pleased within the limits
of the of the decreasing
impact .
