That it can never

of men now living
exceed the greatest
profit that could
otherwise be made
of the same quantity

Resolved
That in any
Colony a number
of males superior
in any considerable
degree to the number
of females
can not be of any
use in point respect of
population

That am even

of both sexes no
considerable progress
in population can reasonably
be expected
to be made in population
where the
greatest part of
the inhabitants
live in a state
of promiscuous
cohabitation copulation

That a state
of promiscuous
intercourse between
the sexes is not
conformable to the
community notions
of good morals, nor to those
of as
professed by the
