Equity delay

1
Erroneous supposition.
Delay not more necessary
in Equity than other Suits

On the present occasion, mere subject matter of complaint

Equity. [Excuse, yes: to delay still more: of the cause of this
distraction honestly] On What on all hands is admitted is — that in the Equity
Court the quantity length of delay is matter for severe and just report. But

is thus unavoidable advantage has been taken to organize a system
of delay as near approaching it as may be in cases in which
it is compleatly avoidable: and not merely avoidable, but in judicatory
of other description actually and compleatly effectually to a correspondent degree avoidable.
