Evidence

§.2. Imprisonment considered as an instrument of punishment

Punishment supposes delinquency. No Suppose delinquency, it is
undue: in toto: suppose delinquency, it requires proportion: so far as it exceeds
the due proportion it is undue.

2. Bill dismissed, because the matter in question was under
the value of 40s. per ann. Reynolds v Davy, 12 & 13 Eliz
Toth, 80. See also Cary, 74, 83, 85. 103

3 The effect of the suit is for a hawke, and certain evidences
suppose to be come to the defendant's hands: and because
it seems to the Court, the matter of evidences was only inserted
to give colour to the Court to hold plea, and the matter of the
hawke is no meet matter for this Court, therefore the matter
is dismissed. Glasiüers v Massic, 21 Eliz. Cary. 82 See also
ibid 89

66 Where a demand is below the dignity of the Court, the
bill shall be dismissed without entering into the merits.
Owens v Smith, East. 13 G2. 2 Com. Rep. 715.

70. This Court will not take cognizance of a sum originally
below the dignity of it, though by neglect or mispleading of
the plaintiff it has amounted to a larger. Anon. Mich. 1728
Mosel, Rep. 47. ibid. Case 107.

17. Demurrer to a bill for that the Plaintiffs equity is
grounded on the payment of 5s. which is not sufficient
for a decree. Fox v Frost Trin. 28 Car 2 Rep. temp. Finch 253
