heres the deffinition of indirect object, a noun phrase referring to someone or something that is affected by the action of a transitive verb (typically as a recipient), but is not the primary object (e.g., him in give him the book ).

Thomas Jefferson delivered what ? A draft. Draft is your direct object. He delivered a draft to who ? He delivered it to the Continental Congress. That is your indirect object. Just remember, you cannot have a indirect object if you do not have a direct object. Answer is Continental Congress (indirect object)
