The funny thing is we declared our Independence on July 2nd.
John Adams wrote Abigail Adams on July 3, 1776:
"Yesterday the greatest Question was decided, which ever was debated in
America, and a greater perhaps, never was or will be decided among Men.
A Resolution was passed without one dissenting Colony "that these united
Colonies, are, and of right ought to be free and independent States, and
as such, they have, and of Right ought to have full Power to make War,
conclude Peace, establish Commerce, and to do all the other Acts and
Things, which other States may rightfully do."
Then in a second letter that same day,
"But the Day is past. The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most
memorable Epocha, in the History of America.
I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding
Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be
commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to
God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with
Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one
End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.
You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. -- I am well
aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to
maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. -- Yet
through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I
can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that
Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should
rue it, which I trust in God We shall not."
