Musket from the war of 1812... 

A well-educated electorate being necessary to the prosperity of a free state, the right of the people to keep and read books, shall not be infringed.

Lacrimosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla
judicandus homo reus. Requiem aeternum dona eis
et lux perpetua luceat eis
