This Day In Founders History – 5 September
On this day in 1774, the first session of the Continental Congress convened at Carpenters Hall in Philadelphia, with 56 men in attendance from all the colonies except Georgia. Peyton Randolph of Virginia was elected as the first president of the Continental Congress. During the First Continental Congress, delegates met through the end of October and discussed various plans. Joseph Galloway of Pennsylvania introduced a “Plan of Union of Great Britain and the Colonies,” which was a plan of compromise with Britain. Only five colonies supported this plan. Paul Revere brought the Suffolk Resolves to the Congress, consisting of political statements by a number of Boston-area communities. This further divided the Congress, although the majority voted in favor of the Suffolk Resolves and against the Galloway Plan. A declaration of rights and grievances addressed to King George III was finally drafted by the delegates.
