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  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?
