Paragraph No. 8.--‘This is a case in which, as the matter appears to me, the father’s principles cannot be misunderstood, _in which his conduct_, which I cannot but consider as highly immoral, has been established in proof, and established _as the effect of those principles: conduct_ nevertheless, which he represents to himself and others, not as _conduct_ to be considered as immoral, but to be recommended and observed in practice, and as worthy of approbation.’--Again in this paragraph the Lord Chancellor declares his judgment to result from the consideration of Shelley’s _conduct_, following from his avowed and unrecanted principles. Paragraph No. 9.--‘I consider this, therefore, as a case in which the father has demonstrated that he must and does deem it to be a matter of duty which his principles impose upon him, to recommend to those whose opinions and habits he may take upon himself to form, _that conduct_ in some of the most important relations of life, as moral and virtuous, which the law calls upon me to consider as immoral and vicious--_conduct_ which the law animadverts upon as inconsistent with the duties of persons in such relations of life; and which it considers as injuriously affecting both the interests of such persons and those of the community.’--Here again the Lord Chancellor speaks of _conduct_; declaring that by _conduct_, resulting from his avowed and unrecanted principles, Shelley has shown himself a man likely to educate his children to imitate his _conduct_. Paragraph No. 10.--‘I cannot, therefore, think that I should be justified in delivering over these children for their education exclusively, to what is called the care, to which Mr. Shelley wishes it to be entrusted.’--No word in this paragraph about either principles or conduct. Paragraph No. 11.--‘If I am wrong in my judgment which I have formed in this painful case, I shall have the consolation to reflect that my judgment is not final.’--No word in this paragraph about either principles or conduct. Paragraph No. 12.--‘Much has been said upon the fact that these children are of tender years. I have already explained, in the course of the hearing, the grounds upon which I think that circumstance not so material as to require me to pronounce no order.’--No word here about either principles or conduct. Paragraph No. 13.--‘I add, that the attention which I have been called upon to give to the consideration, how far the pecuniary interests of these children may be affected, has not been called for in vain. I should deeply regret if any act of mine materially affect those interests. But to such interests I cannot sacrifice what I deem to be interests of greater value and higher importance.’--No word in this paragraph about either Shelley’s principles or conduct.
