As to the jurisdiction, when the punishment comes
to be reduced so low as from life to a single year.
I thought this could be as great danger in preferring to trust
the safety of such an establishment to a jurisdiction not quite so much exposed to
gusts of momentary prejudice or caprice as that
of a common Jury. I Instances I believe are
not wanting where a punishment to this amount
has been trusted to a single Justice: but if it
should be thought better to require two Justices, I
have no objection.
