This Day in History: August 4

WHEREAS, I have spoken injuriously of the distressed people of the Town of Boston, and disrespectfully of the measures prosecuting for the redress of American grievances: I do hereby declare that I am heartily sorry for what I have done, voluntarily renouncing my former principles, and promise, for the future, to render my conduct unexceptionably to my countrymen, by strictly adhering to the measures of the Congress.
