The colonies are about to change

               Starting June 11 Thomas Pain, George Washington and many others attended a meeting who’s topic is a secret. The members of the committee came and went with no more than 33 members present. The last member arrived mid July. The only person who was present all days was Thomas Jefferson, the documenter.  Rumors have been going around that the members of the committee want to unite the colonies and have 1 government.

                      Some people want to put a stop to this and want to stay separate with different governments and laws.  the committee wants to keep everything a secret and shut all the windows even though it was a very hot summer. When the committee went to a party one person always stayed with Benjamin Franklin to prevent him from spilling the beans.
