A 2d
Cases that have the 2d. best claim to Compensation
Another set of cases are those in which the party
damnified sustains a pecuniary or quasi-pecuniary loss,
and the author of the damage receives a profit, but which
is not pecuniary or quasi-pecuniary; in which case it is
ordinarily of the malevolent or vindictive kind.(a) damage pecuniary or quasi-pecuniary — profit not pecuniary See p. 22. 23. These
cases occupy the second rank among those which afford a
claim for compensation. 5. Cases
Note.
(a) It is hardly worth while to make a distinction in favour
of the cases where at the same time that the loss is pecuniary
or quasi-pecuniary, the profit or advantage is of the benevolent
kind. Such cases however are possible and indeed not very
infrequent: to wit where, merely for the pleasure of gratifying the
resentment of your friend, you do a mischief to his enemy.
