Inscription

In tribute to
WILLIAM TYLER PAGE
author
The American's Creed.
I believe in the United States of America
as a government of the people, by the people
for the people; whose just powers are derived
from the consent of the governed; a democracy
in a republic; a sovereign nation of many
sovereign states; a perfect union one and
inseparable; established upon those principles
of freedom, equality, justice and humanity
for which American patriots sacrificed their
lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my
country to love it; to support its constitution;
to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to
defend it against all enemies.
