the virtually penal the preventive remedy will may be
said to possess another advantage.

If for the purpose in question the agent be subjected
virtually penal interest a determinate point of
will naturally be must, to give any effect to the
, be fixt upon and d marked out, at from and
after which such interest shall be computed and
.

If this determinate point of time be, in the instance
such sum received, the very time of its being or received
then indeed all sinister profit the remedy will be an efficient one,
in this case it will have no other effect than that
virtually preventive remedy: nor will it even if that effect be
of with equal certainty: since it will differ from it
in this viz. in the allowance it will allowing
conditions of paying the virtually penal interest that
which in the other case would be interdicted stand absurdly

distribution of the money in question (in this case the proceeds
of the prize in question) be the point of time next after his

the only remedy, be entitled and enabled to keep for his
own benefit all but
the whole in his own
hands. ☞ Exemplify
