Place and Time
unwholesome neighborhood of Calcutta: and the
actors may be exasperated to such a degree to such a pitch,
as to seek one another's death.
At various times various individuals have
been forcibly sent home from India: always for
various real or pretended misdemeanors to the great diminution, sometimes to the total
ruin of their fortunes. The conduct of the government
has in some of these instances been justified
by law, and in all of them I believe, by
policy and good intention. But if at one time
twenty or thirty men in inferior
stations were in the wrong, so at another time may
two or three in a higher: and then if the
sufferers die, their families are reduced from
affluence to indigence, and the oppressors triumph.
