Objection 3. Under Your Contract, you were to have
had no fewer than 1000 Prisoners: all worked under
your direction and for your advantage. This is too great
a power to be trusted in any individual hand.
Answer 1. It is no greater nor other power than
what by the law of the land every Master has over his
apprentices apprentice.
By the number As to the multitude number, so far from being encreased,
the power, as to all purposes of abuse, is lessened by it.
Except his own particular but his own particular friends relatives⊞ ⊞ or other friends where he is fortunate enough to have any.
An Apprentice has no person engaged by any special
he be for or interest to look to him and protect him with a protecting eye.
My Prisoners would, by the law of a common and most
obvious tie of interest, as well as bond of sympathy
stand engaged to afford to one another this as well as whatsoever of
other assistance could be afforded, against oppression in every
shape; at the hands of the common Master: and as to
prisons without doors, the fr each would accordingly have
so many friends in the friends of every other.
Answer 2. In so far as concerns sinister profit, this
objection is would together with the preceding ones, be cut up by
the roots, by the giving up of the Contract, as above.
Answer 3. Independently of all consideration of sinister
profit, is he power and danger of abuse on that score, can it
be that the power magnitude of the power, merely as such power so great
as to in respect of the number of persons subjected to it is
considered as being so great, as to constitute of itself a power one objection, and
that a peremptory one? It is no more than is possessed
by every A Colonel of a Regiment has as much or more.
