"Uniforms" consisted of a variety of clothing homemade working clothes or hunting outfits hastily donned at the beat of a militiaman's drum, faded old military tunics from the French and Indian War 20 years before, local parade dress sported by the difierent volunteer compaides. Soon the Second Congress was to Gen. George Washingappoint a man ton to bring order ! and military disciPline to this rough and unready army. Lack of military supplies was another early problem for the patriots. The nearest big store was at British-hel- d Ft. Ticonderoga on Lake Champlain in northern New York. Early on the same day that the Second Congress opened, an American raiding party of Ethan AtIen's Green Mountain Buys, who had been joined by a Connecticut contingent led by Benedict Arnold, surprised a sentinel on duty at the fort. Allen burst into the commandant's room and demanded immediata and uncon(t.- tonal surrender. "By what authority?" asked the aetonished British efficer. "In the name of the great Jehovah and the Continental Congress," Allen replied. r The raid on Ticonderoga will be featured tomorrow on this page.) Through this daring coup, the Americans gained possession of cannons, arras, gunpowder and other sorely needed military stores. Despite the growing American military stance, there were still some mem, hers of Congress and many other Colonists to whom the itica of complete separation from England was repugnant. They were not yet ready for such drastic action., It was obvious, however, that the Colonies could not forever remain half in, half out of the empire. Moderates persuaded themselves they were not fighting the king but his ministers. It was agreed, therefore, to address George III once more with a profession of continued fealty and a plea for his intervention to stop the fighting and seek reconciliation.. In the "Olive Branch" Petition, the Second Congress declared: "Your majesty's ministers, persevering in their measures, and proceeding to open hostilities for enforcing them, have compelled us to arm in our own defense, and have engaged us in a controversy so peculiarly abhorrent to the affections of your still faithful Colonists that when we consider whom we must oppose in this contest, and if it continues, what may be would encourage many people to game away money they fqq , They've sent the money ,pçépt..pt,Hth..p.,:ti.r.p0 that "Isgalizing p!.3i the , Dy Louis 'lards A percent majority of :imericans opposes legalized betting on all U.S. profession-sport- s '';;; - READERS' ACTION LINE $4.

Now the 1.'irst shot had been fi:cd and the first blood spilled. and Concord were the Lexington culmination of the Colon' sts many attempts to make clear that they meant what they said about preserving their rights. The Second Congress. consisting of delegates from 12 of the Thirteen Colonies, (Georgia was yet to join), presided over by John Hancock and attended by other mat champions of freedom as Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and James Wilson, was of a less conciliatory cast. It issued a stirring Dentaration of the eLiaSeS and Necesaities or Taking Up Arms, which averred: "Our cause is just. Our union is perfect. Our internal sources are great, and. if necessary. foreign assistance is The arms we undoubtedly attainable have been compelled by our enemies to . assume, we will employ for the preservation of our liberties, being with uric mind resolved to die free men rather than live slaves." Meanwhile a Continental Army was in the making. As yet it was a motley, disorganized but determined force.
