postscript_n i_o have_v two_o thing_n further_a to_o add_v which_o occur-now_a new_o to_o my_o mind_n and_o be_v i_o think_v material_a to_o the_o purpose_n the_o first_o as_o to_o the_o regulation_n in_o general_a the_o design_n of_o which_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v to_o displace_v all_o that_o be_v not_o at_o that_o time_n communicant_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o be_v the_o interest_n which_o the_o court_n think_v fit_a at_o that_o juncture_n to_o encourage_v it_o be_v not_o my_o business_n in_o this_o place_n to_o weigh_v the_o merit_n of_o cause_n or_o of_o person_n neither_o do_v i_o at_o all_o intend_v by_o this_o to_o reflect_v upon_o the_o person_n eject_v as_o if_o they_o be_v defective_a in_o the_o discharge_n of_o their_o trust_n the_o contrary_a of_o which_o bate_v only_o what_o concern_v my_o friend_n mr_n hughes_n be_v that_o which_o i_o do_v always_o and_o do_v still_o very_o firm_o believe_v but_o this_o i_o say_v that_o by_o this_o it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v a_o regulation_n not_o only_o make_v by_o he_o that_o have_v a_o legal_a right_n to_o do_v it_o of_o which_o i_o have_v already_o speak_v very_o large_o but_o it_o be_v also_o such_o a_o regulation_n as_o the_o law_n of_o this_o land_n if_o they_o do_v not_o expicite_o enjoin_v yet_o they_o do_v manifest_o encourage_v and_o abett_v it_o be_v very_o incongruous_a to_o prosecute_v the_o same_o person_n upon_o account_n of_o their_o religion_n which_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o law_n put_v in_o execution_n will_v certain_o have_v do_v and_o yet_o at_o the_o same_o time_n to_o reward_v they_o with_o public_a salary_n for_o the_o same_o service_n that_o member_n of_o the_o establish_v communion_n be_v capable_a of_o perform_v with_o equal_a if_o not_o great_a advantage_n to_o the_o house_n i_o say_v great_a in_o reference_n to_o that_o part_n of_o the_o governor_n to_o who_o their_o service_n will_v always_o be_v most_o acceptable_a who_o have_v without_o question_n the_o most_o of_o the_o gentleman_n in_o they_o and_o will_v at_o the_o long_o run_v prove_v the_o most_o generous_a benefactor_n to_o we_o if_o they_o be_v not_o disoblige_v for_o he_o have_v no_o honour_n that_o have_v no_o resentment_n i_o appeal_v to_o the_o great_a favourer_n of_o mr._n h._n and_o other_o if_o a_o set_v of_o papist_n be_v put_v into_o the_o house_n to_o fill_v up_o the_o respective_a office_n belong_v to_o it_o whether_o they_o will_v then_o grumble_v at_o a_o royal_a regulation_n whether_o they_o will_v not_o allow_v the_o king_n a_o power_n of_o visit_v in_o this_o case_n whether_o they_o will_v not_o agree_v that_o the_o ejection_n of_o such_o person_n be_v not_o only_o necessary_a but_o legal_a too_o and_o last_o whether_o they_o will_v not_o think_v it_o a_o very_a unreasonable_a thing_n that_o they_o that_o stand_v impeach_v and_o condemn_v by_o so_o many_o law_n shall_v be_v encourage_v with_o salary_n out_o of_o the_o public_a kevenue_n and_o prefer_v before_o those_o upon_o who_o the_o law_n never_o look_v but_o with_o a_o kind_n and_o favourable_a aspect_n i_o do_v not_o in_o this_o make_v any_o odious_a comparison_n betwixt_o a_o papist_n and_o protestant_n dissenter_n as_o if_o the_o one_o be_v as_o much_o to_o be_v discountenance_v as_o the_o other_o but_o yet_o i_o challenge_v any_o man_n to_o show_v a_o reason_n why_o a_o papist_n shall_v be_v eject_v which_o will_v not_o in_o the_o dry_a consequence_n and_o inference_n of_o the_o matter_n affect_v and_o reach_v a_o protestant_a dissenter_n to_o who_o dissent_n i_o can_v help_v it_o that_o the_o law_n be_v no_o friend_n and_o that_o he_o can_v be_v encourage_v in_o a_o affair_n of_o this_o nature_n without_o something_o that_o squiny_v towards_o a_o dispense_n power_n not_o to_o prefer_v can_v never_o be_v think_v a_o piece_n of_o persecution_n and_o the_o government_n will_v always_o choose_v its_o own_o servant_n as_o it_o be_v but_o reason_n it_o shall_v so_o that_o this_o regulation_n be_v make_v by_o a_o legal_a power_n &_o for_o a_o reason_n agreeable_a to_o the_o law_n i_o think_v it_o have_v all_o the_o validity_n and_o strength_n that_o any_o act_n in_o the_o world_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o have_v second_o the_o second_o thing_n i_o must_v suggest_v be_v only_o in_o fayrness_n to_o the_o other_o side_n that_o i_o may_v not_o seem_v to_o conceal_v or_o smuggle_v any_o thing_n that_o have_v a_o favourable_a appearance_n towards_o they_o it_o be_v that_o our_o order_n run_v only_o during_o pleasure_n therefore_o the_o question_n be_v upon_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o commission_n whether_o that_o pleasure_n be_v not_o dissolve_v and_o i_o answer_v not_o because_o first_o durante_fw-la beneplacito_fw-la signify_v till_o that_o court_n otherwise_o determine_v which_o they_o never_o do_v second_o though_o these_o express_a word_n have_v not_o be_v insert_v yet_o the_o thing_n itself_o be_v plain_o suppose_v we_o be_v all_o of_o we_o at_o the_o pleasure_n of_o that_o court_n and_o of_o the_o king_n from_o who_o they_o derive_v their_o commission_n and_o hold_v by_o no_o other_o tenure_n so_o that_o all_o the_o question_n here_o be_v whether_o all_o their_o act_n be_v vacate_v by_o their_o dissolution_n which_o i_o conceive_v they_o be_v not_o and_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v give_v some_o reason_n for_o it_o three_o and_o last_o that_o pleasure_n be_v a_o real_a power_n can_v never_o die_v like_o matter_n and_o motion_n that_o be_v always_o equal_a and_o the_o same_o take_v in_o the_o gross_a neither_o can_v a_o great_a pleasure_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o a_o less_o any_o more_o than_o a_o great_a quantity_n can_v be_v and_o for_o this_o reason_n the_o pleasure_n or_o power_n of_o the_o commissioner_n can_v never_o be_v the_o pleasure_n or_o power_n of_o the_o court_n of_o alderman_n but_o return_v back_o again_o to_o its_o eountain_n the_o king_n to_o who_o royal_a justice_n goodness_n and_o wisdom_n i_o be_o very_o willing_a to_o refer_v my_o cause_n if_o mr_n hughes_n think_v fit_a to_o make_v his_o appeal_n to_o it_o in_o the_o mean_a
