Dickenson thought that unless the number of representatives given the large States was reduced the smaller ones would be encouraged to import slaves.
Art: VII. sect. 3. resumed.—Mr. Dickenson moved to postpone this in order to reconsider Art: Iv. sect. 4. and to limit the number of representatives to be allowed to the large States. Unless this were done the small States would be reduced to entire insignificancy, and encouragement given to the importation of slaves. Records of the Federal Convention, II, 356, 570, 590.
