[edit]This non-scan-backed transcription was previously posted without a license, but the following pre-1931 source was checked to confirm an expired copyright: https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Writings_of_James_Madison_Comprising/S1c-AQAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22I+had+formed+no+particular+determination.+In%22&pg=PA71&printsec=frontcover
It was determined that the text closely or completely matches what was found at that pre-1931 source, placing what we have here into the public domain in the United States. SnowyCinema (talk) 05:03, 20 February 2026 (UTC)
