September 11, 1802
GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES, Philadelphia, Sept. 11, 1802 Page 2 has nearly 2 columns headed: "Tom Paine, Invited to This Country by His Right Worthy and Affectionate Friend, T. Jefferson". This is an editorial piece with strong criticism towards Thomas Paine, and towards Jefferson for allowing him back in this country after living in France for many years. Although Paine was much celebrated at the beginning of the Revolution, his liberal writings later in life--including his ridicule of Christianity--caused him many enemies. Only 9 people attended his funeral in 1809.
Four pages, nice condition.
