2840. EXPATRIATION, A natural right.—[further continued] .
Early in the session [of
the Virginia Assembly] of May, 1799, I prepared
and obtained leave to bring in a bill
declaring who should be deemed citizens,
asserting the natural right of expatriation,
and prescribing the mode of exercising it.
This, when I withdrew from the House, on
the 1st of June following, I left in the hands
of George Mason, and it was passed on the
26th of that month. [184]
