Letter

Pinckney expresses pleasure that his son's interest in politics was declining and notes that he "found them incompatible with christian charity & brotherly love." He cautions his son to keep his mind "equally unbiased by Church politics" and comments on the partisanship that leads to claims that any one church is the true church to the exclusion of all others.

  • "Pinckney expresses agreement with his son's plan to spend his vacation in study before returning to South Carolina the following winter, and he notes that "a relaxation or apparent decay of even the semblance of religion at Santee ... might render it impossible to re-establish the Church at all." To cover his son's added expenses including domestic help, the elder Pinckney was to forward a check on the U.S. Bank at Washington that would include money from "Grandmother Elliott" for the "hire of Phillis for the past year.""@en
