be done is - to frame a compleat list of all such answers
such as among them shall express every modification
of efficient cause of title that the case admitts of:
(a list that would be found to come into a shorter compass than might at first glance be supposed:)
this done, any answer comprized in such list may
be accepted and entered under the head in question: but
at the same time a refusal to fix upon one or other of
the list of answers must be taken for as equivalent
to a refusal to give any answer: without this, an
unmeaning and uninstructive answer will be the answer constantly
and purposely given, by all dishonest vendors,
and as readily accepted by all dishonest purchasers.
The description of a person's abode is a topic
susceptible of such modificati diversifications and
perplexities such as it would require a little dissertation
to clear up: - another task, as well suited
to the proposed Board, but as it would be unsuitable
to Parliament: and till these perplexities are cleared
up, the answer given by a dishonest examinant seller
will be sure to be pregnant with some evasion, which
an honest purchaser will frequently be unable to
see through, and which a dishonest purchaser will
be sure take care not to d appear to see through, if so long as the
not seeing through them can not be imputed to him
as an offense.
