A member of the Continental Congress, he was the only clergyman to sign the Declaration of Independence, and he lost two sons in the Revolutionary War.
He was President of Princeton and taught nine of the men that wrote the Constitution, including James Madison.
He served on over one hundred and twenty Congressional Committees.
His name was Reverend John Witherspoon, and he died this day, November 15, 1794.

"A Republic must either preserve its virtue or lose its liberty...
Whoever is an avowed enemy of God, I scruple not to call him an enemy of his country."
