“The important point of this report [Montague, Massachusetts; July 7, 1774] may be summed up in six resolutions: 1. We approve of the plan for a Continental Congress September 1, at Philadelphia. 2. We urge the disuse of India teas and British goods. 3. We will act for the suppression of pedlers and petty chapmen (supposably vendors of dutiable wares). 4. And work to promote American manufacturing. 5. We ought to relieve Boston. 6. We appoint the 14th day of July, a day of humiliation and prayer.” American RevolutionNew EnglandMassachusettsFounding FathersColonial AmericaNew England TownsMontagueColonial United StatesTown MeetingsNew England WisdomBuy American Book:History of Montague; A Typical Puritan Town Source: History of Montague; A Typical Puritan Town
