7. John Hancock: The Man Behind the Signature
by Marcus S.
After college, I joined my uncle's business as a merchant. Ten
years later, I became the owner. Anger boiled inside me when the
British officials took my boat, the Liberty, in 1768. I refused to pay
unfair taxes for my cargo. I took them to court but won only the
support of my fellow colonists who were fed up with British rule. In
1770, I lead a group of people who insisted that the British leave
Boston. My friend Sam Adams and I started the Whig Party in
Massachusetts. I served as a member of the Continental Congress.
Finally, my dreams of independence were realized. I was the first to
sign the Declaration of Independence.
