Paul Davies. JC Smith's The Law of Contract (2018 2 ed). p. 454.
As this case was published in 1890, I don't know if Fry LJ were using an older meaning of 'jealous', let alone try to guess which meaning on OED fits here.
Contracts for personal services are also not, generally speaking, specifically enforceable.
In De Francesco v Barnum, Fry LJ insisted that ‘the Courts are bound to be jealous, lest they
should turn contracts of service into contracts of slavery’.70 The courts should clearly not
force a person to work where that would be tantamount to slavery.
