of Compensation

if rather above its value than below.

Reasons

1. Otherwise an offender might be a gainer.

1. The case may be on the one hand, that the offender would
be glad to have the use of the thing in question at the utmost price:
in such case the making him pay the utmost price and no more
could never have the effect of deterring him from taking it.

2. and the party dammified, a loser.

2. It may be on the other hand, that it would be more agreeable
or advantageous to the owner to keep it than to part with the
use of it for the utmost legal or current price: in such case the
giving him that price and no more can never make him amends.

12. of a thing to be made amends for, the greatest value shall be preferred.

If a specific thing to which damage has been done, on
of which a man has been wrongfully deprived be susceptible of different
values, at different times, or according to different modes of
valuation, the greatest of all such values as can fairly be attributed
to it shall be preferred.

13. Example.

A man buys a house for instance for 10 pounds; a thief
shortly after steals it and sells it for 15 pounds. This shall entitle the owner
to have it valued at 15 pounds. If the house had sold but for 5 pounds, still the
owner would have been entitled to have it valued at 10 pounds.
