Indirect Legislation

4 Non-Seducing

-extending provisions would be necessary: First 1. to
provide that the dea as in point of civil responsibility
of the estate no change should be made by the
death of either of the parties. 2. that interest
should run from the moment period at which the obligation
took its rise: [3. that obligation in reparation
of an injury should commence at take its rise from the
time of the injury
] 3. that this moment the obligation should be
not that moment of the liquidation not the time

not wait for the liquidation of the damage, but
should commence at the time with the instancet at which the such
damage came to have been sustained: 4. that the interest
payable on such upon the amount of that
obligation should exceed the common rate.
In these cases delay and expense extortion go hand in hand:
for delay is not to be purchased but at the price of
a multitude of expensive forms formalities Montesquieu says, that
delay is the price of for
which is paid for liberty;
true but that price to
a certain degree it is so: but
the best things when sold
at more than they could
be afforded for are sold
too high.
There are delays
which are the handmaids of justice: but beyond
the comparison the greater part would be found upon
examination be found to be the offspring. Those who
looking upon the above expedients as promising to
be effectual should wonder + at finding that the establishment of
them as yet but a project would do well may be pleased to consider
that blindness, bigotry indolence and indifference
are enough to account for any thing: even
without having recourse to selfish policy or the esprit
de corps
