Let them universally inculcate upon their beloved offspring an investigation of those truths

From Recommendation of Townships of Monmouth County, New Jersey, 1774

May this notification, by some faithful record, be handed down to the yet unborn descendants of Americans, that nothing but the most fatal necessity could have wrested the present inestimable enjoyments from their ancestors.

Let them universally inculcate upon their beloved offspring an investigation of those truths, respecting both civil and religious liberty, which have been so clearly and fully stated in this generation. May they be carefully taught in all their schools and may they never rest until, through a Divine blessing upon their efforts, true freedom and liberty shall reign triumphant.
