B6.Ch.4 Sec 3 Punishment - whether defeasible by Death.
From p.8 at bottom
The Death of the party injured is another event II. by the death of the party damnified
upon which the obligation of making to make amends has is
very commonly made to cease: but with fullas little
reason, it should seem, as in the former case.
The punishment is by this means render'd defeasible Death, of the party in question is
upon a contingency which does not at all
lessen the demandnecessity there is for punishment . The demand for For compensation
indeed the demand is not altogether so strong in this case
as in the former: for the expectation of the apparenteventual
representative The [principal] person who was the immediate object of the injury entertained
a prospect of a present compensation reaping in present the
whole profit of a compensation he expected to be madeadjudged
to him: his representative the dependent did not during the lifetime of the principal
entertain so fullfixed a prospect: He however
entertained a full prospect of asome compensation to
be made to his principalAncestor; and he entertained a prospect
of a part at least of that compensation it devolved
upon himself uponsubject to [the <add>for in</add> of the principal before him +] the contingencies to which his
general expectation from the principalAncestor were subjectexposed. This
expectation is more than any bodyone else was in a situation
to entertain: so that there is morea better reason why
he should reap the profit of the punishment than why
any one else should.
