Here shall the Press the People’s right maintain,
Unaw’d by influence and unbrib’d by gain;
Here patriot Truth her glorious precepts draw,
Pledg’d to Religion, Liberty, and Law.

Joseph Story (1779–1845) American lawyer, jurist, Supreme Court Justice (1811–1845)
Motto of the Salem Register newspaper
