Why He Surrendered

TWO things in addition to the presence of the
American army before Yorktown brought about
the surrender of CORVALLIS. One was lie; not a
spoken lie, but lie enacted for the purpose of
deceiving General Clinton. The other was nine
blank cartridges fired at Port Orange, St. Eustatits
Dutch West Indies.
The lie enters i'll this manner While General
Washington and General Lafayette holding
CORVALLIS in Yorktown, General Clinton, with
eighteen thousand British soldiers holding
imaginary army out of New York George Washing
ton created that imaginary army by pretending to
be gathering force for attack on New York.
He carried the deception to such extent that
ovens, for the purpose of baking bread for the
American force were erected under ClintOn's nose
Clinton, deceived by Washington into the belief that
New York to be attacked STAYED to meet it
instead of going to Cornwalliss assistance. With
his eighteen thousand men pecking at their backs
and Cornwalss seven thousand in front, Wash
lngtOn and Lafayette must have been defeated
Thus well enacted lie fooled Clinton and thereby
contributed to the American victory at Yorktown
But for the presence of Admiral de Grasses
French fleet in the mouth of Chesapeake Bay Corn
wallis could have escaped by SEA The presence of

HOW INDEPENDENCE

IND lie and nine blank cartridges win indepen-
dence for America, Everyone knows how our
little difficulty with King George terminated
but of the details have been forgotten. The
war ended Yorktown. 1t was there, OCto-
Der 10, 1891, that CORVALLIS surrendered to Wash
ingtOn.
After ravaging Virginia to the extent of about
ten million dollars, he had fortified himself at York
town Lafayette's little army of three thousand was
useless against Corvallis seven thousand but when
sailed into Chesapeake Bay, the French General was
quick to perceive that the British General had
trapped himself. This information was quickly
despatched to General Washington He brought
his army into Virginia, and the American army of
sixteen thousand began the siege that finally re-
suited in the surrender of Corvallis
These the facts known to school child; !;
but presenting the affirmative side of the question
it is necessary to produce a few circumstances that
are more or less obscure.
