In late 1786, George Washington wrote

the following: "It is but the other day that we were shedding our blood to

obtain the Constitutions under which we now live—Constitutions of our own

choice and making—and now we are unsheathing the sword to overturn

them. "

To what Constitutions is Washington referring? What event is he referencing

when he talks about "unsheathing the sword"?
