Supplement
§.2. Elucidation
Now far from adequate this succedaneum is, can
not but be manifest.
This this succedaneum wants much of being an
adequate one is but too incontestable. In many a case it
will amount to nothing: perhaps in most cases. It will
depend partly in all the same circumstances affecting sensibility [a
list of which, as compleat as the author could make it
may be seen in the Introduction to the another work:]
depend partly on the importance of the matter in question, in the
conception of the individual this when the testimony is they afforded; [+]
[+] partly on such
of the circumstance
affecting sensibility>lb/>as happen to have
place in his instance
of which circumstances
a list at compleat as
it was in the authors
power to write it
has been before the public
for the last 40
years
supposed to be afforded But, by the inability to do all that
is desirable to be done, no <add> is afforded for omitting to do
any thing of that which, without preponderant inconvenience is capable
of being done.
The minutating Report thus made of the natural signs with which in
the individual vicarious the conventional signs happen to be
as already (as every body knows) in common use: witness
the accounts of the Hear hear! hear hear! and in a
word, of the marks of agitation, mention of which is so continually made in the
periodicals of the day, when giving an account of what passe
has passed at a meeting more or less public.
Thus much as to what for the removal of imperfection can not be done. Now as
to what can and might be done. It consists in the committing to writing maximizing the use made
of the permanent signs as in committing to writing in so far as can be done without preponderant inconvenience
whatever evidence can be done, whatsoever portion of discor the matter of discourse from the commencement of its suit or
other application, in the termination of it, has been elicited
in the oral mode. Thus does be the removal may be to any in question
ever so degree moreover, no other greater or diminution of , nor
consequently any greater danger of deception and misdecision will have place
than that which has thus been described. Judge A <del. (Suppose
has been removed: Judge A in whose presence the testimony has in the oral mode been elicited: and
with it the natural signs
with which the utterance
of it was accompanied his place has been taken by Judge B. In which way
his situattion is that of disadvantage: as compared with that of Judge A above stated A has
But how great soever the disadvantage may be in the case of this Judge it will [+]
[+] not be greater in the
case of a third Judge:
nor in a word in the case
of the last of any number<lb>of successive Judges.
