- A series of letters originally published in the Columbian centinel, June-July 1791, under the pseudonym of "Publicola", and at the time commonly ascribed to John Adams, vice-president of the United States, although the last letter states explicitly that he had nothing to do with the authorship or publication. The letters were in reality the work of his son, then a young lawyer in Boston. cf. Works of John Adams, 1850-56, v. 1, p. 454, and v. 8, p. 507.
- Only seven of the eleven letters are here reprinted.
