What did the Stamp Act Congress of 1765 do?
The Stamp Act Congress was a meeting in the building that would become Federal Hall in New York City in October of 1765 consisting of delegates from 9 of the 13 colonies that discussed and acted upon the recently passed Stamp Act. The meetings adopted a Declaration of Rights and Grievances. The delegates could not be convinced to affix their names to the document and only one signature appeared - the clerk of the congress. Only six of the colonies agreed to write petitions to the King and both houses of Parliament.[1] This Congress is viewed by some as the first organized American action in the prelude to the American Revolution. The colonies that did not send delegates were Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, and New Hampshire.American independence from Britain was inevitable.
What was the currency in the Victorian?
The currency of England was unchanged from the middle ages until decimalisation in 1971. The currency was pounds, shillings and pence. 4 farthings = 1 penny (1d = 4 x ¼d) 12 pence = 1 shilling (1/- = 12d) 20 shillings = one pound (£1 = 20/-) That gave £1 = 960 Farthings. The farthing was abolished before decimalisation as its value had become so low. There was also an alternative top-level unit, the guinea. 1 Guinea = 21 shillings. Large amounts were sometimes quoted in Guineas instead of pounds Examples of how amounts were written: 2½d = Two and a half pence, pronounced: "Tuppence Ha'penny". 6d = Sixpence = half of a shilling. 10/- = 10 shillings 10/6 = 10 shillings and six pence £5/7/6 = 5 pounds, 7 shillings and sixpence. Since 1971, £1 = 100p (pence). The pound was unchanged by decimalisation, but its value has significantly decreased because of inflation.
