An exciting scene in Wall Street was
the reading of the Declaration Of In

Congress, July 1S, 17I6. The ceremony
at the City Hall was an emphatic ex-
preston of New York in particular,

the soldiers that he was permitted to
stay. He taught the soldiers many
things about hunting and fishing they
had not learned with all their long
marching through the American will
delness. He was also able to give them
historical information about their own
fort during the days when the Indians
had claimed the stony height on which
the fort stood, and had named It Che
onderoga. meaning the place of many
mellow sounds, because here they
heard the musical roar of the falls of
the Horizon n mile beyond.
Now, the Fort of Ticonderoga had
cost Great Britain many million dol
lars. 1t contained 100 cannon, besides
the large military stores. so you may
be sure Nathan had wonderful tales to
tell at night by his fathers fireside.
1t was after one of these freight
talks that Nathan climbed the ladder
to his bed in the loft above. He could
not sleep. The cold wind came through
the cracks of the rudely built house.

proportion Of the colonists were op-
posed to the war and ruin stared the
Revolution in the face, fierce desire
for absolute freedom seized upon the
colonies. Through their representa-
tives to the Continental Congress they
urged some action that would declare
their independence of English rule.
On the 7th of June, 1176, Richard
Henry Lee, of Virginia, offered reso-
luton in Congress declaring that
these united colonies are, and of
right ought to be, free and Independent
States" A furious discussion fol.
lowed. John Adams, afterward PreCi-
dent of the United States, was the
most powerful and active supporter of
the resolution. On the ID day of July
the resolution was adopted, all of the
thirteen colonies but New York voting
in favor of it. Thomas Jefferson, af-

was delegated to draw up a declara-

curved seams that are left open few
inches from the lower edge. The
cleeves are two-seamed, in regular
