3. Another expedient is, with to make use of
compulsive means to oblige him lo produce the
sum himself. These means will he either 1.
the subjecting him to a present punishment
to be taken off at what time he shall have as soon as he has done the thing
required: or 2. the threatening him with some
future punishment to be applied at such or
such a time in ease of his not
having done
by (hat time the thing required by that time.[a]
4. A fourth expedient is, to take such property
of his whether effects in money or other
effects, as or whereof
though the legal right to them or to in a
certain sense the legal possession of them is in
him, the physical possession is in other people.
As the existence of such legal right and the
place where the effects in question are deposited are circumstances that can seldom
be known but from his information by his means this makes
it necessary to apply compulsion to him [for this
further purpose]
to oblige him to give the requisite
information.
