The intent of good laws is to oppose this effort, and to diffuse their influence universally and equally.
עמוד 493 - Three of their most experienced generals are sent to wage war with their fellow-subjects : and America is amazed to find the name of Howe in the catalogue of her enemies : She loved his brother.
עמוד 53 - Hutchinson at their head as Chief Justice, all arrayed in their new. fresh, rich robes of scarlet English broadcloth ; in their large cambric bands and immense judicial wigs.
