"I once felt all that kind of anger, which a man ought to feel, against the mean principles that are held by the
Tories: a noted one, who kept a tavern at Amboy, was standing at his door, with as pretty a child in his hand,
about eight or nine years old, as I ever saw, and after speaking his mind as freely as he thought was prudent,
finished with this unfatherly expression, 'Well! give me peace in my day.' Not a man lives on the continent but
fully believes that a separation must some time or other finally take place, and a generous parent should have
said, 'If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace;' and this single reflection,
well applied, is sufficient to awaken every man to duty."
