Again." yh'en the Legislature shall
pass an unconstitutional law, to wtiom
are we to look for redress? Are we not
to look to an indepeWent ' Judiciary ?
Suppose the Legislature were to pass 'a j
law, that when adeltor became insolvent; i
his wifeand children should be sold to t
pay his debts, and the-Judges were to de- j
terraine the, law unconstitutional & void, j
The Legislature might say ..to such a
Judge, you have not exectited our law,
and we consider, you ' incapable of di
charginthe duties of your oftlce.
