* re. separation of church and state in America
Over one-third of a page is taken p with a letter concerning: "The establishment of a Protestant episcopate in America is also very zealously contended for; and is very alarming to a people whose fathers, from the hardships they suffered under such an establishment, were obliged to fly their native country into a wilderness in order peaceably to enjoy their privileges civil & religious..." with more on the issue of separation of church & government.

Eight pages, 8 1/2 by 11 1/2 inches, very nice condition.
