And I seem to see a cruel and bloody century ahead, if the provoked section gets its breath again, which it is certainly now doing. You will say that there is no crowd without an admixture of wicked men. Certainly it was the duty of the principal men to exercise special care in matters of conduct, and not be even on speaking terms with liars, perjurors, drunkards and fornicators.

There was no possibility of disciplining these perjurors and it was up to the expertness of the adjusters to defend their companies from being looted.

By the Roman Catholics, they were looked on as perjurors determined to stick to the Government with blind indifference to their oaths.
