This is a trick question. Rhode Island, then under control of the anti-federalist "Country Party" refused to send any delegates to the Constitutional Convention in 1787. Since the only signers of the document were delegates to the convention, no Rhode Islanders ever signed it.

Fortunately, when the document was sent to the states to be ratified, Rhode Island did finally vote for it -- though it was the last to do so, and passed it by the narrowest of margins.
