Excerpt from Equity in Pennsylvania: A Lecture Delivered Before the Law Academy of Philadelphia, February 11, 1868 It is not a little singular that upon the other side of the Atlantic - in that country from which we derived our laws - it has at last been acknow ledged that to administer equity in a court of equity alone, and solely according to the course and practice of chancery, must, in many cases, be equally a denial of justice.
