"To the Hebrew Congregation in Newport Rhode Island."

May the children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other inhabitants, while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid....

G. Washington

In response to a letter from the congregation which had said, in part :

Deprived as we heretofore have been of the invaluable rights of free Citizens, we now...behold a Government, erected by the Majesty of the People ~~ a Government, which to bigotry gives no sanction, to persecution no assistance ~~ but generously affording to all Liberty of conscience, and immunities of Citizenship: ~~ deeming every one, of whatever Nation, tongue, or language equal parts of the great governmental Machine
