140. ADMINISTRATION, Salutary.—

I am sure the measures I mean to pursue
are such as would in their nature be approved
by every American who can emerge from preconceived
prejudices; as for those who cannot,
we must take care of them as of the sick
in our hospitals. The medicine of time and
fact may cure some of them.—
To Theodore Foster. Ford ed., viii. 50.
(W. May. 1801)
