The letter reflects post-revolutionary state politics in Pennsylvania. In the letter, Rush censures his fellow Presbyterians, who refuse to revoke the test laws and to admit amendments to the state constitution. He also condemns the taking over by the Presbyterian dominated state government of the charter of the College of Philadelphia, now the University of Pennsylvania, and refers to the College of Carlisle, or Dickinson College, established in protest to the first action. He regrets the inflammatory remarks and publications made by members of the state's single legislative body, the Council of Censors, and by Joseph Reed and Mr. Smiley, and deplores the character of Henry Osborn and Owen Faris.

Papers, 1685-1895 1840-1870 (bulk dates).Du Pont family.Papers, 1685-1895 1840-1870 (bulk dates).0.75 cu. ft. : ill.The collection contains scrapbooks, a diary, letters, and a few financial papers, related to several members of the du Pont family. The largest group of letters pertain to Ann Ridgely, wife of Charles Irènée du Pont. The letters include condolences to her on the deaths of her father and her husband, a Valentine poem, a record of some of the expenses of her daughter Amy's wedding, letters from her to Charles about setting the date for their wedding, some Ridgely genealogy, letters from a granddaughter at boarding school, and some Ridgely family correspondence. Also included in the collection are letters from Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson to Pierre Samuel du Pont. Franklin praised du Pont's writing, and Jefferson asked for his help in negotiations with France about Louisiana. Other correspondents include Alexander Hamilton (about the right of foreigners to own land in the U.S.) and James Monroe (glad the du Ponts have settled in the U.S.). The Marquis de Lafayette wrote letters of introduction for James Antoine Bidermann to Bushrod Washington and Thomas Jefferson. Jerome Bonaparte informed the du Ponts of his marriage to Elizabeth Patterson. Photocopies of documents in other collections relate to the building of the Bidermann's house at Winterthur, Delaware. Several scrapbooks and other volumes are found in the collection. Victorine du Pont Bauduy collected poems in her album. Eleuthera du Pont Smith collected drawings and poems from family and friends. The Marquis de Lafayette wrote in her album when he visited the United States in 1824-1825. Two scrapbooks contain pressed flowers. Eleuthera Smith's flower book includes flowers collected for her out west, and also flowers from du Pont weddings. A silhouette of an unidentified woman is laid into the back of Eleuthera's album. The other flower scrapbook may have belonged to Evalina du Pont Bidermann. A brief diary was kept by Henry du Pont in 1842, mainly recording agricultural work. The collection also contains a group of almost 200 receipted bills, most of which were sent to E.I. du Pont. They document purchases of textiles, china, glassware, shoes, jewelry, furniture, and other household goods. As well, there are bills from tailors and dressmakers and one doctor's bill. One bill lists lumber being shipped from Cuba. A few items in the collection have no discernable connection to the du Pont family. Winterthur LibrarySnowden, Nathaniel Randolph, 1770-1850.

He was an active presence and prolific writer during the American Revolution and early Republic from the passage of the Sugar Act (1764) until the Jefferson presidency (1801 to 1809). He also served in the military as colonel, private, and brigadier general. He married Mary Norris in 1770. John Dickinson died in Delaware in 1808. The John Dickinson papers contains incoming and outgoing correspondence; drafts and original manuscript documents from the revolutionary and early national government, Revolutionary War, Delaware and Pennsylvania government; land papers; legal papers; bills and receipts; collected essays, notes and commonplace books; and estate material. The papers provide a clear picture of the way in which colonists envisioned their new country and how these new Americans worked, compromised and adapted in order to achieve their visions.
