which the Judge may allow a man in the
sum of compensation will eventually prove
sufficient to answer that design. Should it
ever fail of this to do so it will so often
leave the party injured a loser, and probably
the offender a gainer (in pursuit of satisfaction,

that what is enough for the one to receive
is enough for the other to pay.
