1787 Constitutional Convention
Mar. 12th, 2013 04:01 pmA little informal celebration after signing the Constitution.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
After signing, the delegates adjourned to the City Tavern, which John Adams described as the “most genteel tavern in America,” for a farewell dinner. Behind the conviviality lurked unspoken fears, and Washington, for one, doubted that the new federal government would survived twenty years.
-- Ron Chernow, “Alexander Hamilton”
