" The Assembly is concerned with the great object of THE CONSTITUTION and will continue to be so...

Declares, as for those who hold power and have caused or will cause, by their crimes, the misfortunes of the People, that they must be accused, convicted and punished; but they must only be punished by the Law, which must keep them under its protection...". - From the printing house of J.M.
