Extract from Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Waterhouse

Monticello June 26. 22.

I rejoice that in this blessed country of free enquiry & belief, which has surrendered it’s creed and conscience to neither kings nor priests, the genuine doctrine of one only God is reviving, and I trust that there is not a young man now living in the US. who will not die an Unitarian.
