in the pre-don darkness of july 1st, 1776, john adams awakens in his running house in philadelphia, got up, and by candlelight he wrote a letter to of former georgia congressman and an old friend named archibald bullard. adams said in that letter that today is set for the greatest debate of all. today we are going to debate whether to declare an american independence. and as adams was the leader of congress and had his finger on the pulse of congress, he knew what the outcome would be. in fact, his next sentence, adams says in that letter, may have been bless the newborn republic. so he knew that independence was going to be declared. he just didn't know if it would be that day, july 1st, or the next day, july the second. he was not certain how many colonies would actually vote for independence. he is hoping it would be unanimous, but he did not know for sure. and if adams knew that independence was about to be declared he, better than anyone, understood just how difficult it had been to get to this point. after all, the first great american protest against british policy had occurred 1

house. madison was the third president to have moved move there. john adams had spent the dismal last days of his administration in a shell inside a construction site. thomas jefferson who madison loved above all men ran it like a virginia plantation house, hosting intimate dinners for congressmen and diplomats with good food, excellent wine and his own sparkling conversation. madison's white house was grander yet thanks to his wife, dolly, who brightened it with banquets and soirees, red velvet cur tapes and -- curtains and green gilt-edged china, a piano and a macaw. now, a little before 8:00 on the morning of august 24th a message came to this republican palace from general william winder, commander of the potomac military district. it was addressed to john armstrong, secretary of war, but the president opened et himself. it himself. the general wanted advice as fast as possible. madison mounted his horse and left the white house for winder's headquarters at the navy yard. the navy yard was a mile south of town on the eastern branch of the potomac now call
