LIBĒL. WORDS 2
Now this was injustice indeed, first offenses rules but manifest and certain — It was so manifest that
it, it had noted - than it can hardly be suppos'd but that long before this time
[being once fully known to exert] that good sense of the notion must have risen up
against it, & has proved itself in bestowing applying some the only propermind, in the only proper
way by legislative power.
Upon consent of both parties and not otherwise the Judge to have power to clear the Court of all persons, but parties Agents Jury Council & one Officer and the witness under Examination.
In the mean time, as the age <add>mankind improved in ingenuity</add> other judges arose who liberal enough not to endure such
absurdity, & not liberal enough to know that the condition of the Law was not to be
bother'd by any thing they would do to drive it, gradually departed from it.
---page break---
The decision if it had not been tamper'd with by the Judges should long ago have received a radical cure by the Legislature.
