JOHN AOAME, NOT
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
DOrODAS. Jfly 9.—To the Editor,
—hi your issue of the Empire of
July 6th, 1 you quote the orator of
the Douglas celebration as saying
that John Quincy Adams was in
noise why . associated with. Thos.
Jefferson In the framing of the Dec
laration 6f ‘ Independence. This is
entirely erroneous as I was particu
lar to sajr that the two men, John
JMUup* and .Thos. Jefferson consti
tuted the'sub committee to draft the
DigeigratloB < and further enlarged up
on their passing to the beyond on
the same ' day, exactly ninety-seven
peers ago. 'It should be a matter of
common knowledge that John Quincy
Adams Whs! .the sixth President, and
wee not vitally In the National game
until yeers after the Declaration of
Independence was written and adopt
HBUSNA H. McBsoy.
IS IN JUNEAU TODAY.
