We perceive that a great breach has been made in the moral and physical systems by the introduction of moral and physical evil; how or why, we know not; so, however, it is, and it certainly seems proper that this breach should be closed and order restored.
That men should pray and fight for their own freedom, and yet keep others in slavery, is certainly acting a very inconsistent, as well as unjust and, perhaps, impious part.
It is much to be wished that slavery may be abolished. The honour of the States, as well as justice and humanity, in my opinion, loudly call upon them to emancipate these unhappy people.

The battle of Brandywine was one of the warlike confrontations of the American War of Independence, which occurred on September 11, 1777.
William Howe faced the army of George Washington wanting to take over Pennsylvania. Washington tries to block the advance of British General Sir William Howel to Philadelphia but ultimately fails. Howe ended up taking the city a few days later and the virginian general failed again and again trying to recover it in the Battle of Germantown.
I hope this has been helpful.
