First Independence
Day Celebrated
On July 8, 1776
The first celebration of the De
claration of Independence was
not held on July 4.
It was held on July 8, 1776 ?
four days after Congress official
ly adopted the historic document
According to research experts
with The World Book Encyclo
pedia, patriots who gathered in
Philadelphia's Independence
Square are credited with origi
nating what has been an annual
celebration ever since. The great
crowd heard John Nixon, promin
ent Philadelphian, read the entire
Declaration. He stood on a tower
ing platform erected seven years
earlier by the American Philoso
phlical Society for the observation
of a rare phenomenon involving
the planet Venus
Bells pealed throughout the
day. John Adams' letters mention
chimes, possiblv those of Christ
Church. As the rector of the
church was a well-known Royalist,
the chimes probably were "rung
without benefit of clergy."
Not until July 2 of the following
| year did it occur to the Philadel- ,
1 phians that the celebration should
be repeated on July 4.
A letter written by John Adams
*o his daughter tells the story of
the next July 4, In 1777. Again bells
pealed throughout the day. War
ships anchored in the river were
gaily decorated. Bonfires and fire
works lit the sky in the evening.
Candles burned in the windows of
nearly every home.
Congress adjourned for the day.
The government dignitaries enjoy
ed a special dinner in a Philadel.
phia tavepi, with music by a Hes
sian band, which had been captured
at Trenton. During the after-din
ner toasts, soldiers outside the
tavern fired continuous volleys.
World Book researchers say this
annual celebration of the Fourth
of July spread slowly throughout
the country. But, even today, July
4 is not a national holiday by United
States law.
