I'm assuming you are referring to the New Hampshire Constitution of 1776 (written four months before the Declaration of Independence).

The council was originally appointed with the intention of a popular vote if a universal constitution wasn't written, because ultimately this constitution seemed to be written as an emergency constitution until a multi-colony constitution was created.
