LARCENY EMBEZZLEMENT

After having thus endeavour'd to establish a comprehensiblean intelligible distinction between these tw crimes
it will be edifying to observe how they have been confounded —

If we believe Serj.t Hawkins speaking from his Judgement + — " If a pad
be guilty or no Trespass in taking the Goods, he cannot be guilty of Felony" in carrying them away"<add>[+]</add>

+ 1. Hawk, 89-SS2.
[+] and agreeable to this he observes SS3 (speaks)
f and for this he cites a decision an authority) that "a
"Carrier who receives Goods in order"
"to carry them to a certain place, "
"cannot be said to steal them,"
by imbezzeling of them afterwards."
now by stbr being said to steal them
it appears by the same fiction, he
means, being felonouslyguilty. [of Felony,
that is of Larceny.]

If we believe the same Sergt. Hawkins speaking in the next page from his
Authorities, it Ca opening a Bank and taking out a part with intent to steal things
may . ing possession here to possession are within another
Nowin both these cases, by the supposition was is the original taking the same, and means
of them a trespass.

If it be said on his behalf, that in the case last part he means not the origin
taking of the whole which was no trespass, but the partial taking [which according in the idea here attributed
to him ], besides that the Idea of ++ two takings one within another is not very satisfactory I
++ of taking the same thing over again
after he had got it see not here this second taking can be kept contra-distinct clear from the "carrying away", to who
my apprehension necessarily includes it.

At least if, the most of possessions [acquired by] the taking within after upon in taking
first second of which was no purpose and antheother not, was what he conceived; he should have g<add>iven</add>
some notice of his meaning

# It is a vulgar that a man
no good to be hanged for a Sheep as
a Lamb — but according to thehave the advice of
the Law is do [ should act] not with
the Lamb, but by all means take
the Sheep & heyou would not be hanged
at all.
