To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Beside, that legal contingen- cies might destroy this argument altogether, it should be borne in mind that such a quasi species of emancipation is utterly unknown to the law of Maryland, and there- fore not legal, and of course could not in any way have affected the state of servitudy in which the negroes would still be left. It must have occurred to every one too, tliat such a course would not have met the requirement of the DisoipJine at all, for tlie Dis- 12 90 cipline disavows emancipation ...as a requirement of law, except where the liberated slave is permitted to enjoy freedom. The argument in question, however, sophistical as disingenuous, does not liberate the slave in fact or form, in whole or in part; free- dom, therefore, in any sense, is out of the question, and such an act by Harding, would have been without the sanction of civil or ecclesiastical law, and could not be approv- ed, it seems to us, by humanity or common sense. We are thus driven to the conclu- sion, that as the principal conditions of the requirement by the law of the Church, were barred by the civil law in Maryland, both the Baltimore Conference and the Gen- eral Conference violated the letter and intention of the Discipline, in exacting emanci- pation of Harding.
