Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Manual of Civil Government: Intended for Public Instruction in the State of Missouri What did they say in the Preamble to the Declaration? "A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to this separation." See page 191. What was the resolution introduced into Congress by Richard Henry Lee, and how was it disposed of? On the 7th day of June, 1776, Mr. Lee introduced into Congress the following resolution, which was seconded by John Adams. A stormy debate followed from the 7th to the 10th: it was then postponed to July 1st. After discussion, Congress agreed to meet in "Committee of the Whole" the following day (July 2,) at which time the Committee of the Whole reported and the resolution was adopted in the following words: Resolved, That these United Colonies are, and, of Right Ought to be, Free and Independent States: that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political Connection Between them and the State of Great Britain, is, and ought to be, totally dissolved. When was the Declaration of Independence adopted and signed? The resolution of Mr. Lee was adopted July 2d by a vote of twelve colonies. (The delegates from New York, pending the decision of the question by the people of that colony, did not vote.) July 4, 1776, the entire Declaration was adopted by the same vote. On the same day it was authenticated by the President and Secretary of Congress and published, but not then signed by the members.
