Extract from Thomas Jefferson to Angelica Schuyler Church

Germantown Nov. 27. 1793.

I am then to be liberated from the hated occupations of politics, & to sink into the bosom of my family, my farm & my books. I have my house to build, my feilds to farm, and to watch for the happiness of those who labor for mine.
