You’re quite right. Tench Coxe wrote several dissertations.
I admit with some embarassment that I wasn't aware of the contributions of Tench Coxe. I was alluding to The Federalist, and other better known writings by better known Founders. I just looked him up and scanned his biographical information. I also found this
"Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man gainst his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American...[T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people." Tenche Coxe, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.
Thank you for broadening my knowledge.
