§.15. Justice for the poorest.

Art. 1. Forthcomingness on the part of certain
persons or certain things, or both, as the case may
be — forthcomingness, as being an actually necessary
means of affording compensation for injury responsibility compensational and punitional, and
inflicting punishment where due: being in every case
necessary to rectitude of decision, and in many cases
not obtainable without a mass of expence, to which
there are no certain limits, the consequence is that
persons relatively indigent will be kept subjected
to irresistible tyranny, under the yoke of all persons
relatively opulent, unless, at the expence of the
public at large, effectual provision be made for
the eventual supply of these necessary means.
Thus on the Pursuer's side.

Art. 2. So on the Defendant's side.
