'winch happened fliortly after, and said, that his being handed
by Lord Rawdon and Colonel Balfour, for rebellion ag^inft
the British government, after having become a British fubjeft
upon the reduction of Charleftown by General Clinton, created
a well founded alarm among all the independent citizens of tins
state, because it aimed a mortal blow at a sacred, unalienable,
and inherent right in Whigs, of not being bound by Tory pa
roles, or ties of allegiance, a right invariably and elfentiaily
different from any belonging to Tories, who having once taken
an oath of allegiance to any of these Rates could Scarcely ever
be absolved from it, even by the conquest or diUdlution of that
state. As a proof of this, while the British troops had any
footing in these southern Rates, the A merican militia, although
they often fubutitted, yet always held themselves justifiable in
revolting whenever they pleased ; and although they were often
made prisoners again, yet they uniformly expetted to be treat
ed as prisoners of war, and infilled upon being admitted to
their paroles ; but this claim was very rarely granted to Tories,
tinlcfs for very Strong and substantial reasons, such as had been
just mentioned. This being the case, he laid, it was incum
bent upon General Greene to counteract any bad impression
which Colonel Hayne's fate might have made on the Whigs,
and to shew, that although Lieutenant Fulker, who was a Tory,
was hanged without trial or ceremony, yet Colonel Hayne,
being a Whig, could not, with justice, be hanged for any poli
tical crime against the British government, even if he had been
tried by a jury ; that therefore his ever memorable proclama
tion was issued, threatening retaliation on the firft British officer
of Hayne's rank who should fall into his hands; that in this
proclamation that great man accused the commanding officers
of the British troops of not carrying on the war upon the libe
ral principles which he wished to have adopted, and of making
invidious diftin&ions betwixt regulars and militia. These aflcr
tions, he laid, had been much misrepresented and misunder
stood, and had given rife to two charges against the character
of that illustrious hero. The firft was, that he himfclf was
guilty of the inconsistency he complains of, and had firft let
the example. The second charge was made by foine well
meaning but deluded Whigs, who had conceived, from the
tenor of this proclamation, that General Greene wished to have
treated the Tories as prisoners of war. lie said, this was
a matter of such fcrious importance, that he was happy to be
able to vindicate the character of that immortal hero from
such bast and cruel aspersions. He observed, that one of the
greatest bleffmgs we had derived from our emancipation from
the British yoke was being freed from a flavifli adherence to
the ftri& letter of laws, capitulations and proclamations ; that
fahs fopali faprema lex being the corner- stone of all politicks,
and the leading maxim by which the founders of our glorious
revolution had regulated their condud, every thing that tend
ed to promote the riling independence of America was to be
attempted, without attending to the literal fetters of written
forms; that we had therefore always explained them according
to their spirit, and to their true intent and meaning; conse
quently these liberal principles, and equal treatment of regulars
and militia, were exhaled to be adopted by the British troops
only, and not by the continentals. Viewed in this light it
would be found, that General Greene's conduct was ever con
fftent and highly proper, and that he never loft fight of this
fell-evident truth, that a Whig is a Whig, and a Tory a Tory.
[Another loud clap from toe Court.] He said, he hoped he had
now proved, to the fatisfadion of every impartial person, that
Whigs might kill Tories at all times; that this practice was
supported by uniform and antient precedents, of which many
more might be produced, if necessary ; that as he had over
thrown the firft part of the prisoner's defence, the fccond
would fall to the ground.
He concluded by observing, that the prisoner at the bar had
been indulged with a fair and impartial trial, [Here the Judge
^qd Jury /book their fifts At the prifoner] which was more than
any Tory was entitled to, and had often been refuted in
limilar cases, and hoped that their verdict would convince rhe
world that it always has been, now is, and ever will be, lawful
for Whigs to kill Tories, in all cases whatsoever.
The Judge said, the Attorney-General had been so exceed
ingly clear, that he declined giving any charge to the jury,
who, without retiring, brought the prisoner in guilty, and the
Judge pronounced the sentence usual on those occasions.
