On the part of these as of other trustees having to whose
it belongs to have other money of other peoples
others hands, delay – delay in respect of the application
to its proper purposes, – is by far the most productive efficient
source instrument of loss and injury: and accordingly the culpable
manufacture production of delay this mischief is by far the most commonly
exemplified shape in which on the part of persons in
this situation delinquency is apt in use to operate manifest.
What renders it so is the comparative degree of security in which
in this particular shape it is in a condition to act: security
not only against penal or punishment otherwise burthensome
affliction at the hands of law but even against
and disrepute.
In every other case sinister profit can not except by omitting out of account articles received
be reaped a practice which is always exposed to deception
by information from the persons from whom they were
received, sinister profit can not be reaped without
exertion, with or without accomplices partaking persons assisting
or at least privy to and aiding in the same iniquity.
But of produure delay in the situation of a
whose function consists in the receipt of money
profits are under the modern system of money
transactions, neat and sure: and to produce delay,
accompanied with these its profits, nothing more is needful than
inaction. But to such inaction, the exercise of unavoidable pressure
of business is are always at hand for an excuse: and
where such excuse not being consistent with truth has really no place or can not be pleaded
consistently with safety, indolence love of ease the less invidious disreputable motives
will naturally be put forward as the cause in preference
to the rapacity, the
more disreputable motive.
