As the patriots of seventy-six did to the support of the Declaration of Independence, so to the support of the Constitution and Laws, let every American pledge his life, his property, and his sacred honor;-let every man remember that to violate the law, is to trample on the blood of his father, and to tear the character of his own, and his children's liberty. ✨ Abraham Lincoln, Don Edward Fehrenbacher (1977). Abraham Lincoln, a Documentary Portrait Through His Speeches and Writings, p.39, Stanford University Press
