Text of the page (random words):
which there was discussion but no dissension resolved that an application be made to the committee of safety of pennsylvania for a supply of flints for the troops at new york then congress transformed itself into a committee of the whole the declaration of independence was read aloud once more and debate resumed though jefferson was the best writer of all of them he had been somewhat verbose congress hacked the excess away they did a good job as a side by side comparison of the rough draft and the final text shows they cut the phrase by a self assumed power climb was replaced by must read then must was eliminated then the whole sentence and soon the whole paragraph was cut jefferson groaned as they continued what he later called their depredations inherent and inalienable rights came out certain unalienable rights and to this day no one knows who suggested the elegant change a total of 86 alterations were made almost 500 words were eliminated leaving 1 337 at last after three days of wrangling the document was put to a vote here in this hall patrick henry had once thundered i am no longer a virginian sir but an american but today the loud sometimes bitter argument stilled and without fanfare the vote was taken from north to south by colonies as was the custom on july 4 1776 the declaration of independence was adopted there were no trumpets blown no one stood on his chair and cheered the afternoon was waning and congress had no thought of delaying the full calendar of routine business on its hands for several hours they worked on many other problems before adjourning for the day much to lose what kind of men were the 56 signers who adopted the declaration of independence and who by their signing committed an act of treason against the crown to each of you the names franklin adams hancock and jefferson are almost as familiar as household words most of us however know nothing of the other signers who were they what happened to them i imagine that many of you are somewhat surprised at the names not there george washington alexander hamilton patrick henry all were elsewhere ben franklin was the only really old man eighteen were under 40 three were in their 20s of the 56 almost half 24 were judges and lawyers eleven were merchants 9 were landowners and farmers and the remaining 12 were doctors ministers and politicians with only a few exceptions such as samuel adams of massachusetts these were men of substantial property all but two had families the vast majority were men of education and standing in their communities they had economic security as few men had in the 18th century each had more to lose from revolution than he had to gain by it john hancock one of the richest men in america already had a price of 500 pounds on his head he signed in enormous letters so that his majesty could now read his name without glasses and could now double the reward ben franklin wryly noted indeed we must all hang together otherwise we shall most assuredly hang separately fat benjamin harrison of virginia told tiny elbridge gerry of massachusetts with me it will all be over in a minute but you you will be dancing on air an hour after i am gone these men knew what they risked the penalty for treason was death by hanging and remember a great british fleet was already at anchor in new york harbor they were sober men there were no dreamy eyed intellectuals or draft card burners here they were far from hot eyed fanatics yammering for an explosion they simply asked for the status quo it was change they resisted it was equality with the mother country they desired it was taxation with representation they sought they were all conservatives yet they rebelled it was principle not property that had brought these men to philadelphia two of them became presidents of the united states seven of them became state governors one died in office as vice president of the united states several would go on to be u s senators one the richest man in america in 1828 founded the baltimore and ohio railroad one a delegate from philadelphia was the only real poet musician and philosopher of the signers it was he francis hopkinson not betsy ross who designed the united states flag richard henry lee a delegate from virginia had introduced the resolution to adopt the declaration of independence in june of 1776 he was prophetic in his concluding remarks why then sir why do we longer delay why still deliberate let this happy day give birth to an american republic let her arise not to devastate and to conquer but to reestablish the reign of peace and law the eyes of europe are fixed upon us she demands of us a living example of freedom that may exhibit a contrast in the felicity of the citizen to the ever increasing tyranny which desolates her polluted shores she invites us to prepare an asylum where the unhappy may find solace and the persecuted repost if we are not this day wanting in our duty the names of the american legislatures of 1776 will be placed by posterity at the side of all of those whose memory has been and ever will be dear to virtuous men and good citizens though the resolution was formally adopted july 4 it was not until july 8 that two of the states authorized their delegates to sign and it was not until august 2 that the signers met at philadelphia to actually put their names to the declaration william ellery delegate from rhode island was curious to see the signers faces as they committed this supreme act of personal courage he saw some men sign quickly but in no face was he able to discern real fear stephan hopkins ellery s colleague from rhode island was a man past 60 as he signed with a shaking pen he declared my hand trembles but my heart does not most glorious service even before the list was published the british marked down every member of congress suspected of having put his name to treason all of them became the objects of vicious manhunts some were taken some like jefferson had narrow escapes all who had property or families near british strongholds suffered francis lewis new york delegate saw his home plundered and his estates in what is now harlem completely destroyed by british soldiers mrs lewis was captured and treated with great brutality though she was later exchanged for two british prisoners though the efforts of congress she died from the effects of her abuse william floyd another new york delegate was able to escape with his wife and children across long island sound to connecticut where they lived as refugees without income for seven years when they came home they found a devastated ruin philips livingstone had all his great holdings in new york confiscated and his family driven out of their home livingstone died in 1778 still working in congress for the cause louis morris the fourth new york delegate saw all his timber crops and livestock taken for seven years he was barred from his home and family john hart of trenton new jersey risked his life to return home to see his dying wife hessian soldiers rode after him and he escaped in the woods while his wife lay on her deathbed the soldiers ruined his farm and wrecked his homestead hart 65 slept in caves and woods as he was hunted across the countryside when at long last emaciated by hardship he was able to sneak home he found his wife had already been buried and his 13 children taken away he never saw them again he died a broken man in 1779 without ever finding his family dr john witherspoon signer was president of the college of new jersey later called princeton the british occupied the town of princeton and billeted troops in the college they trampled and burned the finest college library in the country judge richard stockton another new jersey delegate signer had rushed back to his estate in an effort to evacuate his wife and children the family found refuge with friends but a tory sympathizer betrayed them judge stockton was pulled from bed in the night and brutally beaten by the arresting soldiers thrown into a common jail he was deliberately starved congress finally arranged for stockton s parole but his health was ruined the judge was released as an invalid when he could no longer harm the british cause he returned home to find his estate looted and did not live to see the triumph of the revolution his family was forced to live off charity robert morris merchant prince of philadelphia delegate and signer met washington s appeals and pleas for money year after year he made and raised arms and provisions which made it possible for washington to cross the delaware at trenton in the process he lost 150 ships at sea bleeding his own fortune and credit almost dry george clymer pennsylvania signer escaped with his family from their home but their property was completely destroyed by the british in the germantown and brandywine campaigns dr benjamin rush also from pennsylvania was forced to flee to maryland as a heroic surgeon with the army rush had several narrow escapes john martin a tory in his views previous to the debate lived in a strongly loyalist area of pennsylvania when he came out for independence most of his neighbors and even some of his relatives ostracized him he was a sensitive and troubled man and many believed this action killed him when he died in 1777 his last words to his tormentors were tell them that they will live to see the hour when they shall acknowledge it the signing to have been the most glorious service that i have ever rendered to my country william ellery rhode island delegate saw his property and home burned to the ground thomas lynch jr south carolina delegate had his health broken from privation and exposures while serving as a company commander in the military his doctors ordered him to seek a cure in the west indies and on the voyage he and his young bride were drowned at sea edward rutledge arthur middleton and thomas heyward jr the other three south carolina signers were taken by the british in the siege of charleston they were carried as prisoners of war to st augustine florida where they were singled out for indignities they were exchanged at the end of the war the british in the meantime having completely devastated their large landholdings and estates thomas nelson signer of virginia was at the front in command of the virginia military forces with british general charles cornwallis in yorktown fire from 70 heavy american guns began to destroy yorktown piece by piece lord cornwallis and his staff moved their headquarters into nelson s palatial home while american cannonballs were making a shambles of the town the house of governor nelson remained untouched nelson turned in rage to the american gunners and asked why do you spare my home they replied sir out of respect to you nelson cried give me the cannon and fired on his magnificent home himself smashing it to bits but nelson s sacrifice was not quite over he had raised 2 million for the revolutionary cause by pledging his own estates when the loans came due a newer peacetime congress refused to honor them and nelson s property was forfeited he was never reimbursed he died impoverished a few years later at the age of 50 lives fortunes honor of those 56 who signed the declaration of independence nine died of wounds or hardships during the war five were captured and imprisoned in each case with brutal treatment several lost wives sons or entire families one lost his 13 children two wives were brutally treated all were at one time or another the victims of manhunts and driven from their homes twelve signers had their homes completely burned seventeen lost everything they owned yet not one defected or went back on his pledged word their honor and the nation they sacrificed so much to create is still intact and finally there is the new jersey signer abraham clark he gave two sons to the officer corps in the revolutionary army they were captured and sent to that infamous british prison hulk afloat in new york harbor known as the hell ship jersey where 11 000 american captives were to die the younger clarks were treated with a special brutality because of their father one was put in solitary and given no food with the end almost in sight with the war almost won no one could have blamed abraham clark for acceding to the british request when they offered him his sons lives if he would recant and come out for the king and parliament the utter despair in this man s heart the anguish in his very soul must reach out to each and one of us down through 200 years with the answer no the 56 signers of the declaration of independence proved by their every deed that they made no idle boast when they composed the most magnificent curtain line in history and for the support of this declaration with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence we mutually pledge to each other our lives our fortunes and our sacred honor it ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to god almighty it ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade with shews games sports guns bells bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward forever more john adams on this july 4th 2010 we celebrate the 234nd anniversary of our nation s independence i hope everyone has a safe and wonderful fourth of july declaration of independence share 0 comments supreme court rules that all americans have fundamental right to bear arms posted by darthdilbert at 6 28 2010 08 09 00 pm the supreme court ruled for the first time monday that the second amendment provides all americans a fundamental right to bear arms a long sought victory for gun rights advocates who have chafed at federal state and local efforts to restrict gun ownership the court was considering a restrictive handgun law in chicago and one of its suburbs that was similar to the district law that it ruled against in 2008 the 5 to 4 decision does not strike any other gun control measures currently in place but it provides a legal basis for challenges across the country where gun owners think that government has been too restrictive it is clear that the framers counted the right to keep and bear arms among those fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty justice samuel a
