7246. RELIGION, Personal.—[further continued].

Religion is a subject
on which I have ever been most scrupulously
reserved. I have considered it as a matter
between every man and his Maker, in which
no other, and far less the public had a right to
intermeddle.—
To Richard Rush. Ford ed., ix, 385.
(M. 1813)
