I could not pay my money in a way which I believed was to defray, in a measure at least, the expenses of shedding human blood....

...to hire men to do what I could not, for conscience’s sake, do myself, would be very inconsistent...  I found it best for me to refuse paying demands on my estate, which went to pay the expenses of war: and although my part might appear but as a drop in the ocean, yet the ocean, I considered, was made up of many drops.
