Ch. IV. Means of Inducem Effectually
Inducements to
§
II Non
§.2. Settlers without Capital

3

II. Non-propriet
III. Labouring Settlers.
— Settlers who in the first
instance, are not to have possession of any one of them, of any
portion of land, (with the exception perhaps of his own climate)
— but as to view in the wages of their labour:
wages to be paid to them by employers of a certain
description, (of whom presently) their sole means of subsistence

But, except in so far as a member is at hand, in
which, those who have the money, will be sure, of
obtaining in it, whatsoever things there are, the possession and
use of which is necessary for the continuation of their existence,
money is of no value

In the first instance therefore and for during a
certain length of time, instead of in exchange for a man's labour,
instead of any sum of money the amount of which may
be engaged to be fixed to them when the time is ripe for it, these
labouring settlers, or say settling labourers must have the
money's worth: in a word day by day, a certain allotment
each of them of the several things regarded as necessary
to subsistence: in one word — and this word the customary
one — rations

To each individual or rather to each couple of
individuals (for a part of the proposal is that they
shall go out no otherwise than in couples and this without
children, (children being dead, or not having had
time enough to be born.) Say the be each couple, on
each day on condition that if not done, a certain
proportion of the few not only , labour, under
the direction of their respective employer and pay master, will
have been performed by them respectively, a certain set of rations
in lieu of money will be delivered: the qualities of its several sorts
of
of things to be receipted
in lieu of the correspondent
sum of money being
settled by previous
agreements
