The rare first edition of this Presbyterian group's Constitution, published just after the Synod was organized in 1782. The Constitution eschews any intention of engaging in "controversies about the civil establishment of the Presbyterian Religion," and expressly affirms an intention "to honour the civil powers of America, conscientiously submitting to them in all their lawful operations."
