Novr 1810
Prizes

The next last source of abuse that calls for remedy misapplication and discouragement
– of misapplication of public and private
– of discouragement to captors – is the unfaithfulness
of Prize Agents: persons employed in the sale
and distrubition of the proceeds of Prizes.

As it is with every other species of trustee, so is it
with this particular species of trustee, unless his interest
his pecuniary interest at least, is stands unless and until
adequate measures be taken by the providence of the law
effecting a reconciliation in opposition to at variance with his duty:
not only of probity, but want of intelligence, want of active
talent – by through any one of those differences on the part
of the trustee, the interest of the principal is exposed
to suffer.

Rapacity and negligence – that negligence which is
the fruit result of indolence are the two sinister motives
the two most powerful adversaries against the force
of which human probity in that situation has to struggle.
Howsoever different themselves, their influence operation is
found frequently acting uniformly in the production
of the same mischievous effects, and the amount of the mischief
being given, what were the respective shares which those
sinister interests had in the production of that effect is
commonly as immaterial as it is would be difficult to determine.
