Procedure Code
Enactive or Rationale?
Art. 1. The oral mode being the ori in respect of relative
time the earliest in practice and in respect of numbers
of persons practicing and number of occasions on which
within a given length space of time it is practiced the most extensive,
this as between the two is the proper standard
of comparison.
Art. 2. Compared with the oral the epistolary has two
grand disadvantageous properties 1. exposure to delay
for want of the faculty of grounding questions receiving immediately subsequent
answers to questions suggested by and grounded on antecedent answers;
2. want of the light which in some cases will be
reflected in discourse by countenance and deportment
gesture and tone of voice.
Art. 3. The first imperfection applies to both states of
mind in respect os sincerity on the part of the witn
examinee, the sincere and as well as the insincere. But it applies
and operates with additional force in the case of
insincerity: for a proportioned to the degree of insincerity will
be the his endeavour to evade furnishing the facts in
question in the most instructive state, and to that end to
avoid doing so as long as possible.
Art. 4. The other imperfection applies almost exclusively
to the case of insincerity. On the part of an examinee whose
endeavours are applied employed to the suppress or disguise the
truth, the embarrassment resulting from the any difficulty and
perplexity he experiences will frequently be perceptible
in his countenance, gesture, and the tone of his voice.
