In the oath of the grand jurors there is a provision requiring them to keep secret 'the commonwealth's counsel, their fellows, and their own.' In this sense this word is synonymous with knowledge; therefore, all the knowledge acquired by grand jurors, in consequence of their office, either from the officers of the commonwealth, from their fellow-jurors, or which they have obtained in any manner in relation to cases which come officially before them, must be kept secret. --b-- |
