Description
Thomas W. Dorr penned this credo on the doctrine of sovereignty in 1853 the year before his death. In it he states the people's sovereignty is a God given right and it is the responsibly of just governments to protect this right. This credo was somewhat radical in the 1840s and putting it into practice in 1841-1842 lead to the Dorr Rebellion.
