N. S. Wales
Turning to Captain Collins' journal, I see traces of
a variety of laws that at different times have been
markd by the Governor: by the Governor alone, as it should
seem, since on these occasions nobody else is ever mentioned. Expedient,
all of these laws were — be it so. I shall make no question
of it: the question would be nothing to the purpose. Illegal

as the Governor being steward of the public property under
authority of the crown — acted in that character, and without the
by any regulation of his took upon himself to dispose of ubj
this or that or T other article. or set of articles. Legal
in so far as the Governor — being under the act, or representing
the master of these bondsmen, took upon him by
any regulations of his, the disposal of their conduct or their
time: supposing always that the powers created by a
former act in this behalf were properly pursued.
competent to the purpose of conveying such authority to
the Governor, and properly pursued.
But over the either the persons or in property of
any person individual other than the Bondsmen during
bondage — over either person or property of any such
individual — be he officer of the crown — subordinate agent
free settler — even quondam Bondsman, where once
emancipated, where was — whereis the authority of the
Governor? I mean for the purpose of issuing any
orders call them by any name — orders, directions. regulations
— laws — it never no matter for the name so they have were were meant
to have binding power — I say there is no such binding power
in the hands of the Governor, or in any other hands. Those
