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 induced 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 Sovereignnor will I draw my sword against
my CountryWhen I can conscientiously draw it in her favor, my life
shall be cheerfully devoted to her service."
-saac Wilkins Rivington's New York Gazetteer, May 11, 1775
