“Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence?
Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons in the revolutionary army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the revolutionary war.
They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners, men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.
Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.
Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward.
Vandals or soldiers or both, looted the properties of Ellery, Clymer, Hall, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.
At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. The owner quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.
Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months.
John Hart was driven from his wife’s bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates.
Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: ‘For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.’”

Tonight, night shift officers got a call about four juveniles prowling around a vehicle. Witness said all four doors were open on his car. Four juveniles were detained. Juveniles were released to parents.
Please ensure your vehicles are locked with no valuables in plain view.
@blackhawkce457@KSTP You recognize those targeted families were screwed in the eminent domain process in the undervaluation of their land when the government took it? This seems to be a very reasonable targeted plan towards those people who were directly hurt, if they want to move back into St Paul.
Special thanks to @StPaulBOMA for today’s first responders annual appreciation luncheon. Community partnerships strengthen public safety efforts. Thank you!
@TMobileBusiness Sorry, I lost access to that phone. The software is set to auto update and is at the current revision but the iPhones are still connecting to the E network where the Android phones connect to LTE.
@TMobileHelp The instructions say to
"In device settings set the Network Mode to 2G/3G/4G/LTE or Auto mode." but don't say 'how ' to "In device settings set the Network Mode to 2G/3G/4G/LTE or Auto mode."
