Yes he was. He sat in the famous rising sun chair.

The story goes that at the front of the room there was a special desk for the president of the convention, and behind the desk was a chair with a sun on it. Benjamin Franklin at the end of the convention said that he had often wondered whether the chair was a rising or setting sun, and that he now realized that it was a rising sun.
