loss
n.
Something (not a person) that loses; a situation in which something is
losing. Emphatic forms include moby loss, and total loss, complete loss.
Common interjections are ?What a loss!? and ?What a moby loss!? Note that
moby loss is OK even though **moby loser is not used; applied to an
abstract noun, moby is simply a magnifier, whereas when applied to a person
it implies substance and has positive connotations. Compare lossage.

| 5. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
LOSS, contracts. The deprivation of something which one had, which was
either advantageous, agreeable or commodious.
2. In cases of partnership, the losses are in general borne by the
partners equally, unless stipulations or circumstance's manifest a different
intention. Story, Partn. Sec. 24. But it is not essential that the partners
should all share the losses. They may agree, that if there shall be no
profits, but a loss, that the loss shall be borne by one or more of the
partners exclusively, and that the others shall, inter se, be exempted from
all liabilities for losses. Colly. Partn. 11; Gow, Partn. 9; 3 M. & Wels.
357; 5 Barn. & Ald. 954 Story, Partn. Sec. 23.
3. When a thing sold is lost by an accident, as by fire, the loss falls
on the owner, res perit domino, and questions not unfrequently arise, as to
whether the thing has been delivered and passed to the purchaser, or whether
it remains still the property of the seller. See, on this subject, Delivery.

| 6. The Devil's Dictionary (1881-1906) |
LOSS, n. Privation of that which we had, or had not. Thus, in the
latter sense, it is said of a defeated candidate that he "lost his
election"; and of that eminent man, the poet Gilder, that he has "lost
his mind." It is in the former and more legitimate sense, that the
word is used in the famous epitaph:
Here Huntington's ashes long have lain
Whose loss is our eternal gain,
For while he exercised all his powers
Whatever he gained, the loss was ours.
