Whether function
of justice will answer
depend to the customer
depends on two quantities
1. Profit derivable from
the money laid out if
otherwise employed.
2. No of fees to be paid
for the delay.

Whether these will answer to the particulars depends
upon two quantities on the one hand the upon the time rate of profit which
a the proposed customer may make of the money he has contrived an
to get into his hands, either whether in the way shape of simple
interest or in the indefinitely riskier form shape of profit of trade
on the other hand on the number of the fees he will have
to pay for the delay and the amount of each. But of the
rate amount of interest for the time in question, the unhappy little volume
on that unhappy subject will inform him: if the rate of profit
his own hopes grounded in such difference as it has happened
to him to have laid, and such as it has
happened to him to make; and if the quality and quantity
of the fees money disbursement he will have to pay make in the sum of fees
information at the correct as it is worth his while to make
it, the books of his Solicitor have at all times [been] ready in readiness for his use.

The profit not
exposed to the vicissitude
of trade.

From this branch of trade On the part of the purchaser of the delay there may be a certain within a certain part
extent be of the scale there is room for either profit or loss according as calculation has been
more or less expert and felicitous: but above a certain point
in the scale, the profit is sure not being exposed to any of
these vicissitudes to which every other branch of what commonly
goes by the name of trade is so unhappily referred. Thus
stands the matter on the part of the purchaser of the article this same
commodity: and on the part of the sellers it is all profit—profit,
pure. All down upon the nail: Judge and Co know not
what it is to trust.
