NOMENCLATURE - FELONY Sons to the Indians

It is pleasant enough to observe this Gibberish
under favour of the imitative servility of Lawyers,
crossing the Atlantic Ocean in order
to [be reverberated among the Cliffs of the Potowmack
& the Ohio.]
In 1768 we learn that the Commissioners
assured the six nations that the Governor
of the province had sent 4 Gentlemen with
his proclamation making it Felony without
benefit of Clergy" & for English settlers to continue on English Indian lands. Report of the Lords,
Board of Trade with answers & observations. p. 62
It is true indeed that in the Pamphlet quoted
after the word "Felony" are inserted the words
"of Death"; by means of which two words as indicated in the original tho' the construction
of the phrase in the English is none of the clearest, it is possible
that the Indian by paying no regard to
what was before & after them might understand
something about the matter.
