Mr. Patrick Henry

Maria Guevara :)

Was born May 29, 1736 in Hanover County, Virginia
He was a symbol of American struggle for liberty and served in the Virginia House of Burgesses and the Continental Congress. He also wrote the virginia resolves.
He became famous for a slogan of the liberty:
¨Give me liberty or give me death.¨
He also mentioned that there was no more distinction between Virginians, Pennsylvanians, New Yorkers or New Englanders; he was not Virginian, but American.
