After the First Continental Congress sent its delegates home in October of 1774, English Parliament discussed the American grievances and general situation, while life continued as normal in the colonies, with patriots continuing to agitate, loyalists continuing to support British rule, British troops continuing to occupy Boston, and most everyone likely wondering what the future might bring. In April of 1775, formal hostilities erupted between the colonies and the home-country, with the Second Continental Congress reconvening the next month -- May of 1775.
