RUTLEDGE
And now, sir, I move we adjourn until nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
VOICE
Second!
HANCOCK
Before putting Mr. Rutledge's motion to adjourn, I wish to caution all the members to the greatest secrecy. Whatever the outcome of our deliberation, we can only cause harm to ourselves and to our country by divulging what has been done here. The motion to adjourn is before the Congress. Those favoring?
ALL
Aye—aye—aye—
HANCOCK
Contrary minded?—Carried! [sound of gavel] Congress is adjourned until nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
