Strana 352 - all moral education to be a humbug. Nature teaches children to lie. If one of my boys lies, I set him to write some such copy as this : ' Lying is a base and infamous offence.' I make him write a quire of paper over with this copy ; and he knows very well, that, if he does not bring it to me in a good condition, he will get a flogging.
Strana 30 - ... the people of this state have a right to empower, and do hereby fully empower, the legislature to authorize from time to time the several towns, parishes, bodies corporate, or religious societies within this state to make adequate provision, at their own expense, for the support and maintenance of public Protestant teachers of piety, religion, and morality.
