Text of the page (random words):
g scylla to fall into charybdis or is rather like a man i have read of who being asked if he would take a glass of wine answered he could not take a glass but would take a bottle 2 john hancock was unable to attend the first session of the sixth usca in november 1785 due to his illness despite the absence hancock was elected president but never reported for duty the journals report on november 23 1785 that congress proceeded to the election of a president and the ballots being taken the honble john hancock was elected due the absence of hancock and the usca s earlier refusal to create an office of vice president under john hanson congress turned to electing a chairman the november 23 1785 usca journals report the president not being present congress proceeded to the choice of a chairman and the ballots being taken the honble d avid ramsay was elected unknown to the delegates at that time all of the hancock presidential work would be performed by two usca chairmen david ramsay who would serve as chairman until his state credentials expired on may 12 1786 and nathaniel gorham who was elected chairman on may 15 1786 and served in that position until june 5 1786 on that date the usca journals record the secretary laid before congress a letter of the 29th may from mr benjamin hichborn in behalf of mr hancock stating that as mr hancock is still confined to his bed and unable to write himself he has requested him to inform congress that he has long flattered himself with the prospect of better health the want of which alone has prevented his attending congress but his disorders at present wearing no appearance of leaving him soon he is induced from a consideration of the great inconvenience congress is exposed to in such frequent temporary appointments to fill the chair as well as from the total uncertainty of his future health to request their acceptance of his resignation of the office of president that mr hancock is truly sensible of the singular marks of the favourable sentiments of congress in his appointment and most sincerely regrets that he has it not in his power personally to acknowledge them whereupon resolved that congress proceed to the election of a president usca resolution recording nathaniel gorham as chairman in the absence of his excellency john hancock our president date may 17 1786 five days after ramsay s resignation as chairman the following day the usca journals report that chairman nathaniel gorham was elected president congress assembled present massachusetts new york new jersey pennsylvania maryland virginia north carolina south carolina and georgia and from new hampshire mr pierse long and from delaware mr william peery congress proceeded to the election of a president and the ballots being taken the honble nathaniel gorham was elected there were numerous men elected the chairman of the continental congress and the usca daniel carol thomas jefferson etc before david ramsay and numerous men elected usca chairman after ramsay ramsay however was the longest serving usca chairman and had his credentials not expired in may of 1786 there would have been no doubt that he would have been elected president when john hancock s resignation was received by congress on june 5 1786 this author therefore has included the webpage of chairman ramsay in the grouping of usca as a sub heading under john hancock this peculiar turn of events gives ample testament to the power of the executive departments and usca committees that since hanson performed many important duties of the president this turn of executive events dashed the hopes of many delegates who had hoped john hancock would report to new york and re establish the presidency as a position of national leadership and substantial federal influence this following letter of delegate john bayard to james hutchinson provides an account of the election of john hancock and the work that followed immediately thereafter with a spotlight on the delegates inability to fill their respective seats to form the necessary nine states quorum to conduct business of the utmost consequence president hancock s failure to report for duty had a rippling effect on the usca whose ability to form a governing quorum sank to all time national lows in 1786 on january 2nd 1786 chairman ramsay convened the usca with a british complaint on treatment of loyalists on the 4th they took up the very important matter on the states response to federal appeals to grant congress authority to raise revenue and regulate trade the month concluded with congressional appeals to six unrepresented states to send delegates and a january 24 1786 protest letter for court of appeals judge cyrus griffin the judge s letter filed a formal protest against the usca and its july 1 1785 resolution to discontinue the court of appeals judges salaries without vacating their commissions the secretary of the united states charles thomson responded to judge griffin on february 13 1786 as follows your letter of the sixth of january was duly received and communicated to congress in consequence of which they passed a resolution a copy of which i have the honor to enclose 1 the resolve reasserted that it was necessary that the salaries of the said judges should cease but in an appeasing gesture congress also avowed that congress are fully impressed with a sense of the ability fidelity and attention of the judges of the court of appeals 2 with a family to support and no means of doing so griffin resigned his commission and returned to virginia february and march were also uneventful months for the usca quorums were the exception rather than the rule the states responses to federal fiscal appeals were defiant and ramsay s attempt to gain the authority to regulate trade measures also failed to garnish enough state support congress did standardize the required oath of fidelity for federal officeholders in an effort to streamline the federal government s finances the usca appointed a single commissioner to consolidate settlement of accounts of the five major departments clothier commissary hospital marine and quartermaster delegate attendance still hampered the usca from conducting any sweeping reforms to the ailing federal government march however did usher in free enterprise company that would play a major role in shaping new states and real estate development for the next 200 years the ohio company of associates was formed on march 1 1786 by general rufus putnam benjamin tupper samuel holden parsons 3 and manasseh cutler they initially met at the bunch of grapes tavern in boston to discuss the settlement of the territory around the ohio river dr neu reports in the course of a year 250 investors acquired shares in the ohio company on 8 march 1787 the company appointed three associates putnam samuel h parsons and the reverend manasseh cutler to apply to the congress for 600 000 acres northwest of the river ohio to be paid for in depreciated continental currency or in military rights that is land bonuses to which veterans were entitled acting for the committee parsons presented the ohio company s proposal to congress without success 4 april passed with no appearance by president hancock and ramsay as chairman focused on rallying support to establish a continental impost to raise revenue for the federal government connecticut s delegates in an effort to aid the federal government settlement of the lands north and west of the ohio river offered its resolution for the secession of their state s claims to the territory may was the half point of john hancock s term as president and still no word of appearance or resignation john jay the u s secretary of foreign affairs was wrote john adams on the 4th mr hancock is still at boston and it is not certain when he may be expected this is not a pleasant circumstance for though the chair is well filled by a chairman yet the president of congress should be absent as little and seldom as possible 5 david ramsay defends free franking it is a matter of doubt whether the privilege of franking letters extends to the members of congress on their way to or from public business i have put my name on the outside of this on purpose that you may claim this as a matter of right so few are the privileges and so limited the powers of that body that i note it a kind of treason to give up any that they may possess by fair or liberal constitution on the 12th of may the usca resolved that the navigable waters leading into the mississippi and st lawrence and the carrying places between the same be and are hereby declared to be common highways and be forever free as well to the inhabitants of the said territory as to the citizens of the united states and those of any other states that may be admitted into the confederation without any tax impost or duty therefor this was the boldest move of the sixth usca and no one even knew president hancock s position on the edict on may the 15th ramsay was forced to resign as chairman of congress because his term as a south carolina delegate had expired secretary thomson wrote to john hancock sir in obedience to the order of congress i have the honor to transmit to your excellency herewith enclosed an act of the united states in congress assembled passed the 15 instant and their proceedings thereon 6 secretary thomson enclosed the proceedings related to the election of nathaniel gorham as chairman of congress to serve until the first monday in june next succeeding david ramsay ten days later a sickly hancock who was unable to write had his clerk draft his letter of resignation for his signature it was presented to the congress on june 5th 1786 and the resignation was accepted this ended the unprecedented six month tenure of john hancock a u s president who never took his seat in the federal capitol of new york city ramsay is best known as a historian and author who wrote prolifically on the revolutionary war in 1785 as a usca delegate he published the history of the revolution of south carolina reportedly the first book to receive a copyright in the united states in 1789 after loosing his bid for the u s house of representatives he published the history of the american revolution in two volumes while in south carolina he served in the state senate 1801 to 1815 as its president in the senate ramsay continued to write publishing a life of washington in 1807 and in 1809 the history of south carolina david ramsay also authored in 1812 a memoir of martha laurens ramsay daughter and political hostess of former continental congress president henry laurens in 1815 the south carolina circuit court had ordered that a william linnen be examined by dr ramsay as a condition of his incacertion ramsay reported that linnen was deranged and it would be dangerous to let him go at large once released linnen shot ramsay twice in the back and hip ramsay with a bullet lodged in his intestines died the following day on may 6 1815 the congressional evolution of the united states of america continental congress of the united colonies presidents sept 5 1774 to july 1 1776 peyton
