It will I suppose be thought that it is something to be something
more than blind prejudice that attaches people of this country
so strongly to the institution of Grand Juries.
That institution is subverted in the method
of Appeal.
A writer in the Public Advertizer of ...
May, declares expresses himself vehemently dissatisfied
with the proposal: because Mr Thurloe
as he understands is Attorney General, and Mr Thurloe
as he understands is sanguine in it's in favour; and if Mr
Thurloe be is so unhappy as to entertain an
ill opinion. He has accordingly made him the
of his declamation.
As to Mr Thurloe, I hope he has his character that will
be his defence. If not, he must look out for and the of which he forms a part
other better defenders: I have no other concern to defend
him, than as for what I have to defend
any man whom I see unjustly : much attacked and
as far as I think him attacked unjustly. attacked.
whether he is so or no in this instance score will be seen from the examination of the Proposal which it is said to patronise.
Mr Dunning has doubly disappointed me —
in the side he has taken; and in the course
he has taken to defend maintain it. Mr Dunning
does not approve of abrogating Appeals
for Murder, because to abrogate them is Mr Dunning does
not like innovations, because this is an
innovation, and who can say what may
be the consequences of it. This is the drift of his
speech: I can make no more of it.
Mr Dunning not like innovations? then
Mr Dunning does not like the assembly office that
in which he sits, places him in the assembly in which he sits nor the business which
calls him there: he does not like acts of
parliament, he does not like laws. for
what is any Law but an innovation? he
He who does not like innovations, does not like
any of those benefits that are to be wrought to the community
by good laws: for the greater the any
such benefit, the greater the innovation.
