Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Address to the Members of the Bar of Suffolk, Mass; At Their Stated Meeting on the First Tuesday of March, 1824
Among classes of men, by whatever means the members become associated, there must al ways be a community of interests. Each class is, for some purposes, separated from all others, though sustaining a relation to all others. We find that most of these classes exercise a volun tary government among themselves; and gene rally with the assent of all others, because the rules which they establish are adapted to fit those who observe them, for the more able and faithful performance of the Obligations assumed. This organization is, especially, useful among those, whose labor is merely intellectual.
