Therefore, anyone in the Colony, high or law, inespective of praltion, was at the mercy of an unscrupulous plaintiff, who might bring as action for any amount he chose, and if the unfortunate defendant happened to be leaving the Colony even on a pleasura trip to Japan he would have to find security or go to prison, although the amount of the claim might be ridi. culous.
