Declaration+of+Independance+jacquiepb

Hello my name is William Williams and I was a signer of the Declaration of Independence. I was born in Lebannon, CT in 1731. I worked as a Merchant for my family, my wife and 3 kids. My colony is Connecticut my home sweet home. I am here to talk to you about Great Britian, we have no freedom here whats so ever. The king sends lots of new government officials that we don't want, and he makes us pay for them. We want to have a vote and a say in our own government. We all want the freedom that we deserve! You should trust me because I was elected to the Continental Congress so I have a good experience on what government is. Also I was on the militia to fight in the [|French and Indian War] so i have an experience in war too. The british king wont let us have our freedom, he won't let us pass laws we need for everybody's good. Even when we do pass laws, he won't sign them so they can go into effect, also he tried to force men to give up their right to make laws. So we don't want to live in Britian any longer! “[|It is almost impossible to state what one in fact believes, because it is almost impossible to hold a belief and to define it at the same time.]”
