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

MAN'GROVE, n. A tree of the East and West Indies, otherwise called mangle, and of the genus Rhizophora. One species, the black mangle, grows in waters on the sides of rivers. The red mangrove does not grow in water. Its wood is of a deep red color, compact and heavy. The soft part of the bark of the white mangrove is formed into ropes.
The name of one or
two trees of the genus Rhizophora (R. Mangle, and R.
mucronata, the last doubtfully distinct) inhabiting muddy shores
of tropical regions, where they spread by emitting aërial roots,
which fasten in the saline mire and eventually become new stems. The
seeds also send down a strong root while yet attached to the parent
plant.
* The fruit has a ruddy brown shell, and a delicate white pulp which is sweet and eatable. The bark is astringent, and is used for tanning leather. The black and the white mangrove (Avicennia nitida and A. tomentosa) have much the same habit. The mango
fish.
