Super cool. Charles Carroll of Carrolltons copy...my ancestor! My dream is to stumble upon one of these copies haha.
Maybe they should try reading it over there.
Nah, we need the Scots on our side really, the last thing we want is a throng of kilt wearers streaming over the border again. Much, much prefer to fight side by side with the braves of Scotland. Our people get on better than our rulers.
Buaidh no bas!
How does anyone have penmanship that good?
Sixth grade "handwriting" class I got a C. It was my first bad grade. I would not have been allowed anywhere near that document during the writing.
The last time I was graded on handwriting was 3rd or 4th grade. I still have occasional nightmares trying to write a 'z.'
They didn't give a damn about it after that.
You should see my mother's handwriting, she did calligraphy for a living...
What a coincidence
Wow, I'm amazed that these can still be found in the wilds
Thank you. We are a God blessed nation. It matters!
