3318. FUGITIVES, Exile and.—
Does the
fugitive from his country avoid punishment?
He incurs exile, not voluntary, but under a
moral necessity, as strong as physical. Exile,
in some countries, has been the highest punishment
allowed by the laws. To most minds
it is next to death; to many beyond it. The
fugitive, indeed, is not of the latter: he must
estimate it somewhat less than death. It May
be said that to some, as foreigners, it is no
punishment.—
