America's Christian Heritage



Charles Carroll of Carrollton
Signer of The Declaration of Independence, Constitutional Convention Delegate, Framer of The Bill of Rights, U. S. Senator



Grateful to Almighty God for the blessings which, through Jesus Christ Our Lord, He had conferred on my beloved country in her emancipation and on myself in permitting me, under circumstances of mercy, to live to the age of 89 years, and to survive the fiftieth year of independence, adopted by Congress on the 4th of July 1776, which I originally subscribed on the 2d day of August of the same year and of which I am now the last surviving signer.
