foederal[edit]

In case anyone was wondering, the spelling foederal was once a common alternate; it's a relic of etymology. —Tamfang 08:36, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rating[edit]

I have rated this article as B-class, however, I'd bet it could make good article status if anybody cares to nominate it. Bsimmons666 (talk) 01:55, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Publication and contemporary reaction[edit]

When referring to Pickering's letter, it states that "this was never published". It may not have been published at the time, but it has been published recently by the Library of America in their work Debate on the Constitution (pp. 289-304). I would like to correct this, but I don't know what DHRC is, so editing may affect previous citations. Any ideas what DHRC stands for? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Occidensylvania (talk • contribs) 18:07, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It stands for the Documentary History of the Ratification of the Constitution. I've clarified this point anyway, the relevant bit is that it was not published contemporarily. Christopher Parham (talk) 17:32, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
