By the division thus made of the power, the will
is likewise operated upon – and the junction of interests
the juncti reduction bringing of individual the personal interest of the functionary
into accordance with the universal interest promoted.
In so far as his situation is an object of value
in his eyes, and in so far as his continuance in it
or his return to it or to a similar one is seen felt by him
to be dependent on those of whose interest composes the universal
interest is composed, in so far as his separate individual interest
brought into accordance with the universal interest.
On the scale of private life, only on one or other
of two suppositions is either the power of this location
or the power of dislocation with reference to a trustee denied
to his the principal. The one is – that of mental
infirmity on his part: and on that case it a supposition regard
for his own happiness requires that both the one and
the other power should be refused to him. The
other, that of moral untrustworthiness; and on that
supposition, whether the power of location has or has
not been possessed or exercised by him, regard for the
happiness interest of those for whose sake the power of location
has been exercised, requires that the power of
dislocation – the absolute power at any rate the absolute
power should not be exercised by the same
hands. Why? because if it were, the exercise application of the power
given to the trustee to the purpose in question could not
be secured. This is the case where, for the purpose of securing
the liquidation of a debt, the property of a debtor is placed in the
hands of trustees one or more, for till the liquidation shall have been
accomplished.
