Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary

In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

It is applied in England to deeds of mortgage given by railway companies for borrowed money; also to municipal and other bonds and securities for money loaned. Any of various
instruments issued, esp. by corporations, as evidences of debt. Such
instruments (often called debenture bonds) are
generally, through not necessarily, under seal, and are usually
secured by a mortgage or other charge upon property; they may be
registered or unregistered. A debenture secured by a mortgage on
specific property is called a mortgage debenture;
one secured by a floating charge (which see), a floating
debenture; one not secured by any charge a naked
debenture. In general the term debenture in British
usage designates any security issued by companies other than their
shares, including, therefore, what are in the United States commonly
called bonds. When used in the United States debenture
generally designates an instrument secured by a floating charge junior
to other charges secured by fixed mortgages, or, specif., one of a
series of securities secured by a group of securities held in trust
for the benefit of the debenture holders.

Project::Noah is about making the first American dictionary accessible. To accomplish this, three specific visions need to be executed: Vision::Reprint, will attempt to make a modern printing of the first dictionary of the American language available to the public for under $25; Vision::Redesign, will improve the current online accessibility to the 1828 dictionary; Vision::Recapture will tie the importance of Noah Webster into our American Heritage and create a commissioned painting. All in all, Project::Noah is striving to capture our American Heritage in several ways and make it available to those interested.
