Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Equity in Pennsylvania From the Historical Point of View
But in England there grew up, by reason of circum stances peculiar to that country, a special system or code of rules, administered by a separate court,2 and co - exist ing with a different set of rules on the same subjects, ad ministered by other courts. This system is what is des ignated by the third sense of the term equity. And it created certain rights, not recognized at law, but consti tuting the specific grounds upon which applications for equitable relief are based. These rights are known as equitable rights or equities, and the fourth sense in which the word is used is that which it bears when em ployed to designate such a concrete equitable right.
