in p. 303 line 5 from our intention to attempt to open
"new grounds of controversy with England; but we ardently
"wish, and will never cease to hope, that the
"people of this kingdom will, by perseverance and exertion
"of spirit, bounded by loyalty to our prince and
"a love of the British Constitution, according to its
"purest principles, very speedily obtain the wishes expressed
"by its inhabitants in every capacity, and by
"the addresses of its own parliament to its Sovereign.
"As to Volunteers, it is evident that their honor is
"bound by the determination of their first and only
"glorious meetings in their different provinces, and
"that they can not retract without ignominy and
"contempt."
