Vermont ‘bows to nothing’

Written By RWhitcomb-editor

The Old Constitution House at Windsor, where the Constitution of Vermont was adopted on July 8, 1777

“Vermonters are really something quite special and unique….This state bows to nothing: the first legislative measure it ever passed was ‘to adopt the laws of God … until there is time to frame better.’’

— John Gunther in Inside USA (1947)
