An Essay on the Rationale of Circumstantial Evidence: Illustrated by Numerous Cases (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from An Essay on the Rationale of Circumstantial Evidence: Illustrated by Numerous Cases

The most important doctrines of Circumstan tial Evidence have been so ably treated of in the learned works of Mr. Bentham and Mr. Sergeant Starkie, that an apology may be thought neces sary for this publication. It will however be perceived, that the design of the following Essay is different in some important particulars from that of either of the above-mentioned authors and that an attempt has been made to illustrate the subject by the application of many instruo tive cases, some of which have been compiled from original documents, and others from pub lications not easily accessible.
