Answer:
A. John Locke wrote property instead of pursuit of happiness.
Explanation:
The Declaration of Independence was written by President Thomas Jefferson to record the proclamation of the Second Continental Congress which declared American Colonies free from Great Britain.
Basically, the Declaration of Independence is a public Act through which the American Colonies were legally declared free from Great Britain by the Second Continental Congress on the 4th of July, 1776. It was signed by the 56 delegates at the Second Continental Congress.
In drafting the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson replaced the third term of John Locke’s trinity version (life, liberty and property) with the phrase "pursuit of happiness."
John Locke stated that government are saddled with the responsibility of protecting people's right to life, liberty and property.
However, Thomas Jefferson begged to differ in 1776, substituting "property" with "pursuit of happiness."
Hence, a difference between John Locke's documents and Thomas Jefferson's documents was that, John Locke wrote property instead of pursuit of happiness in the document titled, Declaration of Independence.
