Quere what instructions &c
The had been which taught me to down
the constitution to save trouble.
The same ingenious lawyer who to ferment discontent the rebellion in
the distant past which ended in emancipation had discovered that taxation laws are not laws
had discovered by reading Locke that whenever the Parliament is not sitting, the
advisor of the Crown have a right to annull the laws of Parliament
on condition of making use of the word necessity they who thus come to to come
speak of it [be] questioned for it.
This was that sort of management which the faculties
of the Patron Saint of Rose hill according to any the list of
any to such observations as it has been in any way to make (and opportunities
of observation have not been altogether wanting) were competent
to organize—and such as the eloquence of his superior,
whose regard for existing laws as well as existing engagements is not neither
unknown to me nor unexplained nor proper ready to support.
Nobody whose lot it has ever been to have any thing to
do with Mr Pitt ever suspected him of any want of disposition
to cause trouble. It is to some truth to Mr Pitt that the Sovereign
was in his declining years saw himself reduced to in the
of a pittance to for a pittance for to his right
.
bereft by paper money
of half his real substance.
Points most these, of entire indifference at the time, to the fate of
the wretches thus detained in durance, but of no small
moment to so many lofty personages moment to those who if justice the constitution be thought worth regarding
preserving, will have to answer for it here at home.
