necessary: it has a man evidence to produce? Time,
delay so much, as is necessary must be allowed him
for its production. But if more unemploy'd
time what is the use to any body? What is Where is a
the advantage to a man to have time for producing man the better for having time given him for production
of evidence when there is no evidence to
produce? If time necessary for doing any act
requisite for his just defense is denied refused to any man, that

evil to quarrel with every thing that is pure and
excellent, to clasp to their bosom every thing that
is foul corrupt and mischievous in the system of procedure. that provides
for the execution of the laws
