... Who Am I?:
- I am one of the 'Sons of Liberty.'
- I was born in Massachusetts and later became its first Governor in 1780.
- I ran a very profitable shipping business in Boston, and I used my wealth to support the fight against the Brits during the Revolutionary War.
- From 1775 to 1777, when the Declaration of Independence was created, I was the president of the Second Continental Congress.
So, do you know yet, 'Who Am I?"
-I am the most well known signer of the Declaration of Independence.
Yes, that's right, I am ...
John Hancock
