作证

我想居住在密苏里河西岸的人们对阿比西尼亚几乎一无所知，这一点在座的一些绅士可为我作证，但是，阿比西尼亚对贝内特先生来说是件极平凡的事，对他在伦敦的代理人来说也是件极平凡的事，我当然就得照办。

It is held that a woman, thus taken away and married, may be sworn and give evidence against the offender, though he is her husband de facto ; contrary to the general rule of law: because he is no husband de jure , in case the actual marriage was also against her will.15 In cases indeed where the actual marriage is good, by the consent of the inveigled woman obtained after her forcible abduction, Sir Matthew Hale seems to question how far her evidence should be allowed: but other authorities16 seem to agree, that it should even then be admitted; esteeming it absurd, that the offender should thus take advantage of his own wrong, and that the very act of marriage, which is a principal ingredient of his crime, should (by a forced construction of law) be made use of to stop the mouth of the most material witness against him.

这样被劫持和结婚的女人，可以起誓并作证控告侵犯者，虽然此时他是她事实上的丈夫；违背了一般的法律规则：因为他不是法律上的丈夫，在此案件中实际婚姻也违背了她的意志。在那些实际婚姻确实不错的案件中，对于女人被强制和诱骗劫持之后的同意，Sir马修·黑尔（1609–1676，英国法学家）似乎质疑她的作证究竟在多大的程度上被允许：不过其他的法官看起来都同意，应当对事实予以承认；确实有点荒谬，侵犯者可以这样的利用他的过错，而结婚的行为——他罪行的主要部分——被用来堵住了可指控他的最主要的证人。良好的人性，恰当的理性，和对上帝的信仰。规则的美在于简单，个性的美在于丰富，语言的美在于逻辑。

Here, in the midst of institutions that have gone forth from old Plymouth Rock, the black man has been excluded from testifying in the courts of law; and if the Legislature of every Southern State to-morrow pass a law, declaring that no Negro shall testify in any courts of law, they will not violate that provision of the Constitution.
