Guarding

-selves to be guarded from domestic enemies, why will they
from foreign enemies?

are allowd to make it their business to defend
us against the for latter are not to be allow'd
to defend us against the former.

If [liberties must necessarily be destroyd
by] the notion of employing men who are under then to defend our liberties who have
arms in their hands and know how to use them
is not so intolerable to be endured, I have but two expedients to
propose. To fight our battles against quell the French
let us send our Sheriffs each of them at the head of their his
respective posse comitatus: and the City Constables and City Watchmen with
their poles under the command of the my Lord Mayor
[and Aldermen] and to quell To quell street-
robbers and highwaymen let us make a law
that no person of that description do presume
to exercise his vocation with any arms of
equal efficacy to a
constable's staff, nor
till he be turned of sixty
nor, nor at night unless he have fatigued
himself during the day by working at some honest
livelyhood.
