Answer 1

The correct answer is that the Trustees explained that the slavery was immoral. It was a matter of principle and it was not consistent with sociological and political intentions. Not all wealthy landowners demanded the slavery ban. The goal was to enable comfortable living, not the accumulation of wealth in the hands of a few. They also believed that work that was meant to be done by slaves, could have easily be done by Europeans.
