Excerpt from Notes on Thomas Jefferson
The publication, in 1853, of J efferson's confidential cor respondence, his Ana and other productions of his, not before given to the world, has furnished all who will use them with data sufficient for forming a correct judgment concerning him and his whole career. No attempt to per form a work so important and extensive has been made in the following notes; but it is hoped that they will throw light on some of his peculiar doctrines, and illustrate some traits of his character, that heretofore have been either too little known, or too much disregarded.
