Pretty proud to have family who's names are signed on that document. History might not mention Whipple and Bartlett as much as Jefferson and others, but they were there and did their part.
I'll be damned if I let what they created die on my watch.
Writing from Philadelphia on January 7, 1776, Mr. Whipple informed Mr. Josiah Bartlett; "This year, my Friend, is big with mighty events. Nothing less than the fate of America depends on the virtue of her sons, and if they have not virtue enough to support the most Glorious Cause ever human beings were engaged in, they don't deserve the blessings of Freedom."
