danger what?
2 Danger from penal retribution.
1 Danger from radical cr reform — in what cause it has place
That from radical reform, neither in respect of its establishment
alone considered as established nor when considered as
in a way to be established and in respect of the necessary means
to its establishment, no danger in any shape to any its part or class
or persons or any person, can in any event be reasonably
apprehended — this it were too much to assert — to
undertake to maintain.
Danger to either to person or property — danger in
the event of its taking place by in a peaceable manner
by peaceable means as in Ireland consensual unoccupation
and parliamentary unoccupation took place — no
in the event danger either to person or to property, there
is none. As to power Yes — From the hands of that set of
trustees or rather of intruders who ought to have considered
themselves as trustees but now have never done so it is
necessary that the power trust should pass into the hands of another
set of trustees — in whose hand the trust will not be
capable of being abused.
How then it must be confessed is danger: danger of the same
sort as that which in the case of stolen goods, hangs keeps hanging over
the heads of the stealers the design of being finding themselves
under the necessity of making restitution of giving
up their prey
