Remedy Publicity II. Transgressions

3 Obstacle 3. poverty: understand relative poverty - inability to defray the

expence, whatsoever it may be. Of the operations necessarily preparatory to the

ultimate publication above brought to view, an indefinite number may any or all

of them be unavoidably attended with an indefinite amount of expence. 1.

Collecting from places in indefinite number, each of them indefinitely distant,

persons capable of serving in the character of reporting or say deposing

witnesses. 2. Committing to writing the result of their respective depositions:

3. transmitting from judicatory to judicatory from office to office copies of

the written instrument to which the statement of the case was first consigned.

That provision might in some way or other be made for them, the case required

that these several sources of expence should be brought to view. In what

particular way such provision may most conveniently made will depend upon local

circumstances, such as lie not within the cognizance of him by whom these

particulars are offered to view.

Note here, that as well upon those who are likely to be most willing as upon

those who are likely to be most unwilling, should the tone of whatever

ordinances are issued for promoting publication be as forcibly imperative as

possible. The more irresistible in appearance the coercive process, the greater

will be the security given to those /him/ in whose breast any desire to

cooperate towards the beneficial effect in question has place: against the wrath

of the offended and denounced oppressor he has coercion to plead his excuse.
