The acorn and oakleaf device on the preceding page is redrawn from a seal cut for
John Quincy Adams after 1830. The motto is from Caecilius Statius as quoted by Cicero
in the First Tusculan Disputation: Serit arbores quae alteri seculo prosint (“He plants trees for the benefit of later generations”).
