Book excerpt: Excerpt from Centennial History of Missouri (the Center State), Vol. 1: One Hundred Years in the Union, 1820-1921 The treaty which has so happily sealed the friendship of our two countries has been received here with general acclamation. Some inflexible federalists have still ventured to brave the public opinion. It will fix their character with the world and with posterity, who, not descending to the other points of difference between us, will judge them by this fact, so palpable as to speak for itself in all times and places. For myself and my country, I thank you for the aids you have given in it; and I congratulate you on having lived to give those aids in a transaction replete with blessings to unborn millions of men, and which will mark the face of a portion on the globe so extensive as that which now composes the United States of America. - Jefi'erson to M. Dupont De Nemours, French Minister, Novem ber Ist, 1803. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
