Intention is required in the commission of crimes and injuries ,
in making contracts ,
and wills .
3 .-
1 .
Every crime must have necessarily two constituent parts ,
namely ,
an act forbidden by law ,
and an intention .
The act is innocent or guilty just as there was or was not an intention to commit a crime ;
for example ,
a man embarks on board of a ship ,
at New York ,
for the purpose of going to New Orleans ;
if he went with an intention to perform a lawful act ,
he is perfectly innocent ;
but if his intention was to levy war against the United States ,
he is guilty of an overt act of treason .

The same rule prevails in numerous civil cases ;
in actions founded on malicious injuries ,
for instance ,
it is necessary to prove that the act was accompanied ,
by a wrongful and malicious intention .

The intention is to be proved ,
or it is inferred by the law .
The existence of the intention is usually matter of inference ;
and proof of external and visible acts and conduct serves to indicate ,
more or less forcibly ,
the particular intention .
But ,
in some cases ,
the inference of intention necessarily arises from the facts .
Exteriora acta indicant interiora animi secreta .

It is a universal rule ,
that a man shall be taken to intend that which he does ,
or which is the necessary and immediate consequence of his act ;

But a bare intention to commit a crime ,
without any overt act towards its commission ,
although punishable in foro ,
conscientiae ,
is not a crime or offence for which the party can be indicted ;
as ,
for example ,
an intention to pass counterfeit bank notes ,
knowing them to be counterfeit .

In order to make a contract ,
there must ,
be an intention to make it a person non compos mentis ,
who has no contracting mind ,
cannot ,
therefore ,
enter into any engagement which requires an intention ;
for to make a contract the law requires a fair ,
and serious exercise of the reasoning faculty .

In wills and testaments ,
the intention of the testator must be gathered from the whole instrument ;
3 Ves .

and a codicil ought to be taken as a part of the will ;
4 Ves .

and when such intention is ascertained ,
it must prevail ,
unless it be in opposition to some unbending rule of law .

It is written ,"
says Swinb .
p .
10 , "
that the will or meaning of the testator is the queen or empress of the testament ;
because the will doth rule the testament ,
enlarge and restrain it ,
and in every respect moderate and direct the same ,
and is ,
indeed ,
the very efficient cause .
thereof .
The will ,
therefore ,
and meaning of the testator ought ,
before all things ,
to be sought for diligently ,
and ,
being found ,
ought to be observed faithfully ."
