Contractor, who for the profit to be made by selling him
their services, to a Master for the penal term, to a Master in America engaged
to convey them to the destined scene of banishment, or
at least to convey them out of the country (the Mother Country) from
which they were to be expelled banished. Taking the punishment thus upon the footing face of the letter of the law, the effect of it would be, in all cases alike, to add to the fundamental and introductory part of it — expulsion, the ulterior and perfectly that the banishment of which constituted the essential and indispensable of the punishment was . distinct punishment of bondage: expulsion from the Mother Country, bondage to be endured in the country to which the Convict was to be expelled.
