What type of evidence is used in this excerpt from "The Crisis, No.1" by Thomas Paine?
I once felt all that kind of anger, which a man ought to feel, against the mean principles that are held by the Tories: a noted one, who kept a
tavern at Amboy, was standing at his door, with as pretty a child in his hand, about eight or nine years old, as I ever saw, and after speaking
his mind as freely as he thought was prudent, finished with this unfatherly expression, "Welll give me peace in my day." Not a man lives on
the continent but fully believes that a separation must some time or other finally take place, and a generous parent should have said. "If
there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace."
