Our consideration however can not pass altogether all this which presents itself unnoticed
by from which the plea for violation of law on the ground of
necessity and expediency, can not but lose something suffer from abatement of its force. Already
the March 1797 Expirees in a state of freedom
are such stated as amounting to not less than 600. If
so many such a number at that time so large a number could be existing in that sort of state which is there
called freedom, and the the settlement remain undestroyed,
what becomes of the plea of necessity or even expediency,
when applied to as to sanction to the keeping of them in a
state of illegal bondage, by dozens or half dozens at
a time? a violation of law and justice, for the sake of
no greater a mass of advantage than was to be reaped to no greater profit, than that of that was to be had by from the keeping them in this state by doz scores or
dozens or half dozens at a time?
In all these transactions, in all this time, is
it in the nature of the case that the system, such as it
is should have been carried on otherwise than in consequence
of and in general in conformity to, as Official Instructions
received from him?
