Extract from Thomas Jefferson to Comte de Moustier

Paris Octob. 9. 1787.

the Count de Moustier will find the affections of the Americans with France, but their habits with England. chained to that country by circumstances, embracing what they loathe, they realize the fable of the living & dead bound together.
