5300. MISSISSIPPI RIVER NAVIGATION, Western people and.—[further continued].
It is impossible to answer
for the forbearance of our western citizens.
We endeavor to quiet them with the expectation
of an attainment of their rights by peaceable
means. But should they, in a moment of
impatience, hazard others, there is no saying
how far we may be led; for neither themselves
nor their rights will be ever abandoned by us.—
To William Carmichael. Washington ed. iii, 173.
Ford ed., v, 217.
(N.Y.,
1790)
