Why the Law is Uncertain.

Language is IN imperfect instrument
for the expression Of ideas. Not a few
of its forms are ambiguous: that is, they
speak in two ways. Reader and nearer
are left in old ISaac's p~erplexity. The
voice Is that of Jacob, the hand is that
of Esau. Many of the terms of language
are e~quivocal. They have two mean
ings, so that the reader is in doubt as to
the mind or intention of the writer.
Those who draft statutes know how diff
ficult it is to frame a law which shall be
free from ambiguous expressions or
equivocal terms. Judge Story once
told a personal incident, which illus
trateS this difficulty. He was employed
by Congress TO draft an act. So i'm
portant was it that Re spent six months
IN trying 10 perfect its phraseology.
His purpose was TO make the statute so
clear that the most astute lawyer should
not he able TO cast the shadow of a
doubt upon its meaning. The draft,
proving satisfactory to the lawyers in
Congress, became a law. In less han
a year, Il suis, involving the interpreta-
ton OF this very law, came before the
Court over which Justice Story presided.
Having heard the arguments of the able
attorneys. the Judge confessed that he
WAS unable to decide upon the meaning
of a statute which he himself adframed.
He, of course, knew what he had meant
TO put into the law. But the criticisms
Of the two lawyers showed him that he
had used such ambiguous expressions
that it was doubtful if he had said what
he meant tn have Said-Toufh,s Cop,-
pasion.
