OBSTACLES INTERETS Lawyers ag:st Notoriety

If any one suppose the wishes of the professors of
the Science for the universal knowledge of
it to be spread among mankind, to be
and general, must deny either that there ever this was true of that
was a time when Ecclesiastics strove to the
very death to keep the Bible from the People
or must believe that the constitution of Human Nature has
undergone a fundamental change, and that causes
have for some time on a sudden lost their power of producing
their effects — He must suppose wither that these
professors in there
becoming such have
by a kind of
Granulization been
changed to a purity
unknown to men
of every other
description or
that every
man sincerely to proper this advantage of every
man to his own, or that every mans the
conduct of the generality is governed by the expectation of fame & Glory
in preference to every other consideration the very essence of which it is, to rest but upon
a few—

I say general service doubtless the denomination
of men has as numerous [many reliable] exceptions to this
common law of Human Nature, none other more

It belongs to them
not as Lawyers, but
as men.
