They conceived, therefore, that the administration was at least dividedupon the question, and they were fearful of being called upon, lest theyshould give offence, and thus injure their prospects in life. Thisobjection was very prevalent in that part of the kingdom which I hadselected for my tour.
The reader can hardly conceive how my mind was agitated and distressedon these different accounts. To have travelled more than two months, --tohave seen many who could have materially served our cause..., --and to havelost most of them, --was very trying. And though it is true that Iapplied a remedy, I was not driven to the adoption of it, till I hadperformed more than half my tour. Suffice it to say, that after havingtravelled upwards of sixteen hundred miles backwards and forwards, andhaving conversed with forty-seven persons, who were capable of promotingthe cause by their evidence, I could only prevail upon nine, by all theinterest I could make, to be examined.
On my return to London, whither I had been called up by the committee, to take upon me the superintendence of the evidence, which the privycouncil was now ready again to hear, I found my brother: he was then ayoung officer in the navy; and as I knew he felt as warmly as I did inthis great cause, I prevailed upon him to go to Havre de Grace, thegreat slave-port in France, where he might make his observations for twoor three months, and then report what he had seen and heard; so that wemight have some one to counteract any false statement of things, whichmight be made relative to the subject in that quarter.
