4. Class the 4th. Causes which by reason of their complexity,
and although the whole mass of the evidence which the case furnished
be forthcoming, are by reason of their complexity incapable
of being gone through in the compass of a single sitting.

Those causes of the description In regard to causes of this description
Nature has rendered it strictly speaking impossible
that they should be heard throughout by a Jury, tried with the benefit
of all the evidence, and all the observations required by that
evidence, is matter of physical impossibility.

In English practice causes of this description, are in
great numbers submitted in show and pretence to the cognizance
of a Jury. What is impossible is to try the cause do the business.
What is not impossible, is – to receive the fees reward for doing it, in pretence of
trying it.

Receiving money on false pretences is in some cases,
felony: but these are whethe where the eceivers are weak and
helpless: subject to the laws, not makers of those laws on pretence
of being declarers.
