Be it as it may in regard to propriety Setting propriety out of the account, in any one of
those three versions redactions there would have been consistency distinctness,
distinctness would have been undisturbed.

1. The first would have required in comparison but
little thought: upon the face of it, it promises to be
unexceptionable: and to be applicable with equal propriety
without exception to the three less principal cases whether the money were the produce of viz. bounty, salvage and or
seizure.
