Annuity Notes
Ch. Grounds
II Rate
10 considered
the end of a period of short or uncertain indeterminate duration,
especially if the call be of such a nature as to presents itself in the shape of a
be backed by an obligation, legal obligation while the circumstances especially if moreover
of the times be such as that — depretiation
to an amount more or less considerable
may be regarded as morally certain (which
is always the case at a time that the continuum
of or commencement of a war presents itself
as highly probable) in cases of this sort
the bar may be regarded as insuperable. [+] War Under With this explanation
time is may certainly be considered as the time of
all others for the giving the employment in
question to see what are called permanent sums:
but it is in a still greater degree t
to the purpose of giving the same employment
to what are called temporary sums. In the
former case the question lies between gain and
still greater gain: in the latter, between a small
gain and a more considerable as well as probable
loss.
