To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Moreover, there are some cases where coroner's juries hesitate to find a verdict of manslaughter, as being disproportionate to the offence and yet where some punishment ought to be imposed. The provisions of the 24 and 25 Viet. Ch. 100, s. 34, appear insufficient for this purpose, and we recom- mend a statutory provision similar to that contained in the Mines Regulations Act (35, 36 Viet. , Ch. 76, s. 61, and Ch. 77, s. 32) that any person in the employment of a railway company who in the cours...e of his service is guilty of any act or default of a kind calculated in the opinion of the court which tries the case, to endanger the safety of others shall be liable to a penalty on summary conviction. The Regulation of Railways Act of 1842 (5 and 6 Viet. , Ch. 55) contains a very definite precedent for such an enactment ; and, indeed, if certain provisions which at present can be put in force only by the officials of the railway companies were ex- tended and incorporated with the general criminal law, nothing more need be desired.
