<sic>Ch. Ch. Judicial Abuse obviated
4 §.2 Motives in judicial abuse

11
11. Motives. Legislative
restraint none, to men
present, motives can
never be wanting adequate
to the production of the above
boundless evil.

So much as to means. Now as to motives.
Laying Lay out of the case as still before all legislative restraint, among those
persons to whom means are present there will always be those to whom motives can never
be wanting — motives of sufficient force to give to the evil
the boundless magnitude just spoken of.

12
1. From love of sport.
To the too many to whom
others pain is a source
of pleasure, never sufficient
would be a portion of
time thus employable
without prejudice to subsistence

to the Roman
way who
<gave them the
compensation money

The love of sport — ever so weak a master as the love of
sport might of itself suffice to produce it for the production of it. In regard to
means, on the part of an individual, who could to whom the distress
of others were a source of amusement, in a word of pleasure in the shape of pleasure and
as yet there are always and every where and always but too many
such, for the production of the effect nothing more would be requisite than a quantity of
time which for this amusement might without prejudice to
subsistence might be spared. History speaks of a rich Roman
, who, observing so not other than pecuniary penalties, limited to
the amount suited to measured by the pecuniary ability of the greatest number,
walked the street with the money in his hand
empty and and who as often as ne met with a
passenger in whom he was disposed to cut their the
to after giving him a and a cuff, he would
throw the money in his face.

13
In this way boundless
is the suffering might be
without with very
small expence of time
Example, witnesses and
parties from
places in
against a groundless
or a
story

Erroneous would be the supposition that in this way
a man could not then inflict suffering on others without conflating on himself correspondent
and equal or little less than equal suffering at the same time.
By an g unjust demand or accusation with a false tale for
the support of it he might subject the to suffering
whether in the name of compensation or of punishment
for want of witnesses when</del <add>to whom appear attendancy</add> to the knowledge of the his mendacious
pursuer, their distance prevented from the judgment seat sufficed
to oppose an insuperable bar.
