I thought my posting the core sentence from it would give you a clue.
Did you lose track of the discussion? Clearly you did at one time realize that we were specifically talking about the Declaration of Independence.
Your train of thought must have jumped the track.
Up until #1,104 we were talking about ratifying the US Constitution. Then you slipped in a non-existent reference in the DOL. Yes, it was there that disinterest drifted my attention off-point.
My point is and remains that signatories to the ratification of the United States Constitution got no spiffs, no bonus, no commemorative pens. There were no side deals and no conditional language other than what appears in the Constitution itself.
