Answer:

On June 10, 1775, John Adams proposes to Congress, meeting in Philadelphia, that the men laying siege to Boston should be considered a Continental Army led by a general. However, John Adams, representing Massachusetts, realized that the military effort would only succeed if the British thought the colonies were united.
