3. Judicial Branch Section 2 2025

"My countrymen,

Before I leave America, the land I love, and in which is contained everything that is valuable and dear to me, my wife, my children, my friends and property; permit me to make a short and faithful declaration, which I am introduced to do neither through fear nor a consciousness of having acted wrong.... All I have done, written or said in relation to the present unnatural dispute between Great Britain and her Colonies proceeded from an honest intention of serving my country. Her welfare and prosperity were the objects towards which all my endeavors have been directed.

I leave America, and every endearing connection, because I will not raise my hand against my Soverign-nor will I draw my sword against my Country. When I can conscientiously draw in her favor, my life shall be cheerfully devoted to her service." - Isaac Wilkins, Rivington's New York Gazetteer, May 11, 1775
