Excerpt from Doubtful Questions in the Law of Elections Stated and Canvassed

Extent the principle is carried, [great Grimsby, 1 Peck. 71. Olrelzampton, ibid. -but still there is a strong primd facie presumption at least, that the party whose wife or child is left to subsist on alms cannot be himself in condition to contribute to parish rates; and it is no very violent narrowing of the definition of a pot waller to hold a person not within it, who though he may support himself; leaves those whom he is bound to support to live on parish relief or charity. These cases, therefore, fairly rest on the indisputable ground that the con dition of pauperism is repugnant to the nature of the particular franchise, and they require no support from any principle of common law dis ability. It is unnecessary, therefore, here further to notice them.
