What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "On the whole it was thought advisable to postpone the issuing of the Proclamation, which, at this time, would only appear as finding fault only with the People for their Joy too riotously testifyed at the late Election, & in that consideration might committ rather than give weight to the Ministers of Government. Every Step of Precaution for the last Night's Security of the Town, as well as for the future was also directed to the Civil Magistrate, as also planned for the Military." in the context of "Letter to George III (31 March 1768), quoted in The Correspondence of King George the Third From 1760 to December 1783, Volume II: 1768 to June 1773, ed. Sir John Fortescue (1967), p. 17" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
