On December 6,1813, Jefferson
wrote to Baron Alexander' von
Humboldt, who had just return
ed from Mexico, where, he (von
Humboldt) carefully investigated
conditions similar tc those which
are stirring Mexico to the fonn
dations today: In this letter
the Monroe Doctrine is fore
shadowed. Jefferson writes:

Doctrine, from Monticello Oct.
24, 1823, Jefferson warns against
.the ‘‘Lawless alliance, calling
itself Holy.”—(We need to keep
always before us, that the Monroe
Joctrine was formulated as a
protection against the so called
“Holy Alliance,” which was an
alliance formed by Roman Cath
olicism.)
In a letter to Michael Megear,
written May 29. 1823, on Home
and B’oreign Missions, Jefferson
declares that “were the pope, or
his holy allies, to send in mission
to us some thousands of Jesuit
priests, to conVert us to their or
thodoxy, 1 suspect we should
deem it as a national aggression
on our peace apd faith.”
With these divinely conceived,
and openly expressed statements
of the author of the Declaration
of Independence, which warn
against the Roman Catholic
menace, in every phase of its
ecclesiastical and political treach

gained from years of personal
contact, experience and close ob
