of the Collections of the Historical Society of PcM^lvania, Vol. I, No, 1, May, 1851. 3 26 sive war — to all necessary resistance to attack, or assault, coul J have been carried into eflfect without such men as James Logan at his right hand, whose principles so far adapted them- selves to the actually existing state of things as to do what was necessary to be done, when the alternative came ; to die your- self, suffer wives and children, old and young, the brightest and the best, to be cut down... and all your human hopes destroyed, or to take the lives of your murderous assailants. Logan's idea was, "that all government is founded enforce," and involves the necessity of defensive war ; and he expresses the surprise with which he learned from Penn, on their first voyage to this country, the difiFerent views held by his patron the great philanthropist. Franklin relates a singular anecdote of great point, as having come from Logan himself, detailing an occurrence on this voyage which led to an interchange of views.
