Presumptive evidence (Law), that which is derived from
circumstances which necessarily or usually attend a fact,
as distinct from direct evidence or positive proof;
indirect or circumstantial evidence. "Presumptive evidence
of felony should be cautiously admitted." --Blackstone.
The distinction, however, between direct and presumptive
(or circumstantial) evidence is now generally abandoned;
all evidence being now more or less direct and more or
less presumptive.
