Independence Hall shares with Carpenters' Hall the mem- ories of historic events connected with the very beginnings of the Union. For it is here that the first Continental Congress met on the 5th of September, 1774. In this "plain but spacious hall" in secret sessions, the members agreed "not to export, import, or consume any merchandise from Great Britain." Of this remarkably intelligent body of statesmen Lord Chatham said: "For solidity of reason, force of sagacity, and wisdom of conclusion under a complication of difficult circumstances, no nation or body of men can stand in preference to the General Congress at Philadelphia."
