Extraß from the Preface
" The authors have prefuuied to affik to
their title, the epithet impartial ; and the
reason is,becaufe the)'cannot charge them
lelves with feeling the smallest bias to any
pat ty hut to that of truth and liberty ; and
they flatter themselves, that their readers
will find not only every circumstance fairly
profented, but every censurable action,
whoever were the authors or actors, mark
ed in its proper cola 4 ri If it was necefla
ry to make a declaration of (heir own
principles, th»y would fay, they are neither
tory nor republican—they love liberty ai
Englifti whigs, and execrated very criminal
aft by which so noble a cause is endangered
nd disgraced.
"In the present ferment of the public
mind, they cannot flatter themselves with
the hope of feeing this claim universally
acknowledged. On the contrary, they are
u/ell ajfured that theft pages will not be accepta
ble to the zealots oj cither part). But when
time shall have dilfipated the clouds of poli.
tical deception, and appeased the tumul.
of the passions, they will with fouie confi
drnce expect that verdict from public opini
on, which and our and moderation fel
domfail to receive."
