Rutledge earned colony-wide recognition when he represented a case involving a dispute between the Commons House and the Council. The case involved a publisher with the South Carolina Gazette and its reports on the dispute.

Many South Carolinians supported a measure to cease trade with Great Britain, but Rutledge wanted to postpone the vote to allow the Continental Congress to decide. The South Carolina General Assembly selected Edward Rutledge as a delegate to the Congress in 1774. With the divide over taking limited action, taking immediate action, and the undecided concerning trade with Britain, Rutledge continued to advocate for compromise during 1774 and 1775. When the vote of independence from Great Britain finally came in 1776, Rutledge affirmed separation from the Crown. </del></div></td><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-added"></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="−"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #ffe49c; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><del style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"> </del>The Revolutionary War brought hardship for Edward Rutledge.
