Happy July 4th and the men who signed The Declaration of Independence

Sunday, July 4, 2021 1:17

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Back in 1776, 56 men signed the Declaration of Independence.

The Declaration is forever known for this:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

The signers understood the risk in putting their name on this document. This is how they concluded the declaration:

“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.”
