Easterly

This word, when used alone, will be construed to mean "due cast." But that is a rule of necossity growing out of the indefiniteness of the term, and has no application where other words are used for the purpose of qualifying its meaning. Where such is the case, instead of meaning "due east," it means precisely what the qualifying word makes it mean.
