3) Personal Injuries in general.
that of offences against person and reputation
By Nusances, to wit Personal Nusances, I understand
acts that produce danger of [organical
pain] corporal sufferance without any direct [the] intention
of producing it. But as these so long as they produce
nothing but danger affect no an individual
any otherwise than as he is one of a neighbourhood,
I shall refer dismiss them to the class
of offences thence denominated. When they produce
mischief it is a mischief of the sort produced
by one or other of the first seven offences
abovementioned: with only this extenuation, of it's having
been occasioned through inadvertence.
There remain belonging belonging to this order ten genera of offences as above enumerated.
With regard to these offences there is a way of
distributing them by which they might be brought
together under yet narrower titles. This distribution
though not pursued it may be of use just to exhibit
mention on account of its being often brought into view
in popular discourse.
