Caesar Rodney was the Delaware representative to the Continental Congress. A signer of the Declaration of Independence. And he himself took a midnight ride like Paul Revere, to warn of the British coming.

And president of Delaware.

"Let [Virginia] be of good cheer," he said, "she has a friend in need; Delaware will take her under its protection and insure her safety."

He covered 80 miles and arrived at Independence Hall's doorstep in time to cast his decisive vote. Years later Thomas McKean remembered meeting Rodney at the door "in his boots and spurs."
