The end of the last sentence before they signed reads: "we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortune and our sacred Honor."
A great many of them did in fact lose their lives, fortunes and honor before it was all over. Recommended reading for the bios of each of the signers is titled "Founders of Freedom in America" by David C. Whitney. J.G. Ferguson Publishing Co. Unfortunately long since out of print.
