He was scandalously hl-treated by his captors.
Upon learning this. General Washington put the
law OF retaliation immediately aud resOlutrly in

who VAS then prisoner in our hands At the tune.
And General Washington, in letter TO General
Howe, commander OF the British forces, used this
language.
"The law Of retaliation is not only jus'i6sble
in the eyes OF God and man but absolutely q
duty, which. in our present circumstances. ue
