both sexes in every country being now ready to starve for want of work and service: And these
to be disposed of by their parents if alive, or otherwise by their nearest relations. But with due
deference to so excellent a friend, and so deserving a patriot, I cannot be altogether in his
sentiments; for as to the males, my American acquaintance assured me from frequent
experience, that their flesh was generally tough and lean, like that of our school-boys, by
continual exercise, and their taste disagreeable, and to fatten them would not answer the
charge. Then as to the females, it would, I think, with humble submission, be a loss to the public,
because they soon would become breeders themselves: and besides, it is not improbable that
some scrupulous people might be apt to censure such a practice (although indeed very unjustly)
as a little bordering upon cruelty, which, I confess, hath always been with me the strongest
objection against any project, how well soever intended."
