Hawles, Englishman’s Right: a dialogue between a barrister at law and a juryman, 1763
|
|
The Englishman's right: a dialogue between a barrister at law and a juryman: plainly setting forth, I. The antiquity, II. The excellent designed use,
III. The office and just privileges of juries, by the law of England: by John Hawles, 60p., London, n.p., 1763. (In this dialogue between a barrister
and a potential juror, the jury is portrayed as the guardian of the laws of England, and judges and Parliament are portrayed as easily influenced and
corrupt. The author, a Solicitor General to King William III, feels the role of juries is to override acts of Parliament that violate basic English
freedoms.)
