Titre: Patrick Henry, First Continental Congress, 1774
Légende: Voir la traduction automatique
Mural depicts an oration by Patrick Henry in Carpenters' Hall. The First Continental Congress met from September 5 to October 26, 1774 at Carpenters' Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Congress was attended by 55 delegates appointed by the legislatures of 12 of the 13 colonies. Georgia declined to send delegates because they were hoping for British assistance with Native American problems on their frontier. The Congress met briefly to consider options, including an economic boycott of British trade; rights and grievances; and petitioned King George III for redress of those grievances. Their appeal to the Crown had no effect, and so the Second Continental Congress was convened the following year to organize the defense of the colonies at the onset of the American Revolutionary War. Patrick Henry (May 29, 1736 - June 6, 1799) was an American attorney, planter and politician who became known as an orator during the movement for independence in Virginia in the 1770s. Henry led the opposition to the Stamp Act 1765 and is remembered for his "Give me liberty, or give me death!" speech.
