Notes. 4) Personal Injuries. Simple
Injuries unpleasant is [not commonly hardly] so extensive. It is in Where spoken of as apt
subsisting in the body to be confined to sensations of the acute kind:
sensations of the unpleasant kind are scarcely
consider'd as being included under it. 'Tis on this
consideration that [I have thought it] it seemed advisable
to [characterize them under by a separate appellation]
take a separate appellation to characterize
them.
Injury. From p.1. supra. [a] continued The word injury, it will be here observed, is used for
shortness. The expression at length is an act productive
of an injury. In the strict and original sense of the word injury it is plan
no act can be a species of injury. Act is the name
of a semi-real entity, injury of one an entity altogether fictitious.
Entities semi-real and fictitious are altogether disparates
the one cannot be a species of the other. The charac using
the same name to characterize both, I was apprehensive
might be productive of confusion, if the notice were not
given of the difference. The inaccuracy however is no [more
than what is warranted by usage.] other than what
usage warrants.
