THEFT. 86
which is not Larceny, but Larceny and something
more. Robbers and Burglarers may be, and often
are, indicated only of the latter Crime.
It had been well if instead of losing his
Labour in these unnecessary Distinctions, he had
bestowed it on the discriminating of the Offence from
the six Species of Acts with which by the Epithet
fraudulent it is expressly confounded —
1 Embezzlement; 2 Personation; (at that Time
offences only in a few Cases;) 3 False Pretences;
a very questionable Crime at that Time, if any,
except in the Instance of False Tokens; 4 False
Circulation; 5 False Weights and Measures; 6
Forgery.
The Author of the Commentaries has
therefore very properly in his Definition cut off these redundant
Clauses. if the other.
The Definition of the Civil Law, from
which this Epithet was taken is, "Fraudulenta
Contrectatio Lucri faciendi Gratia, vel ipsius
Rei, vel etiarn usus ejus Possessionisve."#
