licenses men to exercise due and

strip them Of such authority when
found transcending it, but punish
such as usurp undelegated power,
and holding them as malefactors,
give them a taste of the distress
and pain inflicted by them on the
patriotic pioneers who have invest
ed their all on the Nations frontier.
