should ossunic without *obcr rsfUatitffi'
and an hopot determination to be in fact
that, which in the tEcory of our govern*

people. Willi a full knowledge of all o!‘
those facts, I resisted for a lung time the
enwicst solicitations of my friends to al-

'to be use 1 and in doing »•>, had no oilier
