Quantum of damage —
how to
be proved

If the fact be well
proof

In cases of Smuggling Theft, Embezzlement, Fraudulent obtainment Robbery, Malicious Mischief,
Forgery, Coining Incendiarism and Malicious Inundation if the crime
be well proved, slight presumption b may be taken
for sufficient proof with regard to the quantum
of the damage.

Servants to yield off
to Gentleman

If in a quarrel between a menial [male]
servant and a gentleman the servant was has been in the
wrong the gentleman may assault and corporatly give him moderate chastise
him on the spot

insolent Servants
of
may be chastised
by Gentlemen.

If a menial [male] servant or day-labourer
behave in an affrontive manner to a gentleman
the gentleman may give him moderate corporal bodily chastisement
on the spot, and such chastisement shall not justify
the servant from striking again from assaulting the gentleman in return or relief
if he can save himself by flight, unless it be
to save himself from receiving irreparable damage.

REASONS.

A servant is has been trained in the habit of submission
and obedience; [they are among the necessary duties of
his calling.] A gentleman in that of independence. It
is much less painful less painful therefore for a servant to digest
an affront than even from one of his own rank than
it is to a gentleman: much if the especia more when an affront be
be from a gentleman: A blow from a gentleman to a servant
does not dishonour a the servant: but a blow from a servant
to a gentleman dishonours the gentleman.
