method of compelling that evidence which by which the motion for
leave to commence it must be supported — The Prosecutor
Affidavit is read, perhaps that of another witness, & of
a third: by then it appears that B, D, & have Substitutes
could were in such situation as to be to give a still much more perfect account of the
Transaction — All this while C. was a neighbour
who having no quarrel with the Deft, cared not, D,
a defendant who dared not, a friend who would
risk himself on the side of the Prosecution.

The question is not but who is whose Friend.

is a matter apparent
upon the face of the pro-
ceedings, & therefore
open to inference in
favor of the of the
accused the cause of that Si-
-lence which if known
would destroy the infer-
-rence, is a matter
extraneous to the pro-
-ceedings, of which commonly no
legal proof from it's very
nature of things, can be
give, nor if it could given
would be received
