 Hartnett/Democratic Dissent & the Cultural Fictions of Antebellum America. Conclusion: The Paradoxes of Democratic ...
The whole point of Frelinghuysen's argument, however, like the hundreds of similar essays and speeches given by his fellow Lyceum activists, is to produce that delicate position of cultural authority from which one can talk about teaching fellow citizens how to understand their rights, duties, and powers without sounding like a monarchist.
Frelinghuysen is jockeying here not so much for official political power as for cultural power, the right to articulate authoritatively what the people need or do not need to know and do to be good citizens.
Frelinghuysen in 1832, Emerson in 1837, and Whitman in 1855 are each unable to answer these questions, yet interestingly, all three men ask them in forms that privilege open public debate.

 Theodore F. King of Landing, New Jersey Roxbury Ledgewood NJ
Theodore F. King was born on November 14, 1843 on a farm in Roxbury Township, Morris County, New Jersey.
It seems that Theodore tried either to undercut his competitor, the Black Line, by avoiding the Morris Canal tolls or could not come to an agreement with them, so he used small boats to ferry people from the shallow dock at Landing to his Steamboats waiting a half mileaway in deeper water.
In 1928 Theodore Frelinghuysen King passed out of this life, and in mourning his daughter simply locked the door of his Ledgewood store, contents just as they were, which is how it remained until her death on July 22, 1975.
