Excerpt from The People's Guide: A Business, Political and Religious Directory of Hendricks Co., Ind., Together With a Collection of Very Important Documents and Statistics Connected With Our Moral, Political and Scientific History; Also Historical Sketch of Hendricks Co We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles.
