Based on his transcendental beliefs and "Civil Disobedience," it is most reasonable to assume that Thoreau believed following his conscience was more important than following the law.

This is what he instructed people to do as well - if they disagree with what the government has to say, they need to do what they consider is the right thing and rebel if needed. Following his conscience rather than the law took him to prison on several occasions.
