"I have come... into these districts because I found the law sitting too tight upon me and am not overfond of neighbors who can't settle a dispute without troubling a justice and twelve men... I am as rightful an owner of the land i stand on as any governor of the States! Can you tell me, stranger, where the law or the reason is to be found which says that one man shall have a section, or a town, or perhaps a country to his use and another have to beg for earth to bury himself in?This is not nature, and I deny that it is law."
