Story behind the image

"The Sacrific Be Mine"

The message no sooner reached him, than, laying aside all other engagements—including a much-needed voyage to England for a life-saving procedure for skin cancer—Caesar Rodney rode an exhausting eighty miles through the night during a torrential downpour, arriving in Philadelphia on July 2, 1776, just as the voting was beginning.

Rodney arrived lacerated and in much pain, but participated nonetheless “in his boots and spurs.” This too was a man inflamed with the godly desire for freedom—he understood his role in the birth of a free nation, and would not be deterred from his course—no matter his personal cost.

Caesar Rodney’s critical vote allowed Delaware to join the other colonies in making a unanimous vote for independence. His sacrifice would cost him his life however, for he would never fully recover from his nighttime ride through the storm, and in his weakened state, he succumbed to the skin cancer he had left untreated.
