From the United States chronicle, Thursday, February 19, 1784. In this paper last week a clear confutation of the original claim to the right of slavery was given, by ... Judge Blackstone,—the subject is now concluded with the sentiments of that ingenious lawyer and excellent writer George Wallis [i.e., Wallace] as published in his "System of the laws of Scotland" ... Stating that slavery is neither legally nor morally justifiable, and recommending the liberation of Negro slaves in America.

Wallace, George, 1727-1805.
