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 serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured.

Read it all and get a flavor for what this is actually about.

Perspective.

Ponder.
