deal of inconvenience, and as think, great deal OF
improperly, in the ndiscrmlnate permission 10 let every
applicant or petitioner withdraw his petition and all his
papers, and make new There many cases
within my experience in which entire new have
been produced according to the exgency OF the occasion
am very much inclined against allowing any such thing
We go on here, session alter session. hearing claims
which have been decided and again for twenty
years have known many such cases which have been
decided adversely for twenty years, and are still renewed
in some shape, under some new pretence. When
you consider thai all this proceeding pu'e there is
great proprety in understanding and knowing what
the original case presented by the petitioner Let
his papers remain. IT he wishes TO produce anything
additional let him produce it. ! am generally opposed
to the claim of a man who has made one claim and
withdrawn his papers to start anew Perhaps my hon.
orabe friend from Rhode Island however, may be able
to state particular for not letting these papers
man.
