steuben Not an Adventurer.
'steuben was not an adventurer purely
seeking personal fame and money. He
had been a distinguished officer in the
Great Frederick's army i'm which he was
connected with the quartermaster's de-
partment and an aide de camp to the king
He came to America az the request Of
Benjamin Franklin and with a letter Of
Introduction from him Steuben himself
wrote to congress that the honor OF serving
nation engaged in the noble enterprise
Of defending It's rights and liberties was
the reason that brought me to this con-
tinent. steuben Joined the American
troops during the gloomy winter at Valley
Forge and was soon afterwards appointed
inspector general OF the army. The con-
dition OF the troops at that time is too
we'll known to need description. Their in
ability to sustain a contest against the
organized English soldiers had been taught
in a woeful lesson by the campaign OF 106
in New York and New Jersey. 1t is rec
lOgnized by all American historians that
none Of the foreign officers rendered more
important services than Steuben did by
organizing and dlsciplining the army intro
duclng a system Of military tactics and
creating the engineer and artillery corps.
Educated in the best school Of war OF his
time approved and trusted by the Great
Frederick his services to his adopted
country were Invaluable. Steuben sue
ceeded In bringing order out Of the gen
eral confusion, reducing the raw recruits
to homogeneous mass with the old troops
and accustoming the whole to the utmost
precision OF movement and management
Of arms and to yield punctiious obedience
to orders BY impartlng discipline he gave
confidence to the officers and men and
| enabled the troops from different parts OF
the country to act together with unanimity
and effect BY introducing military habits
! Of strict obedience he suppressed tumult
and disorder, and by his rigid system OF
| inspection great sums were saved at a
time when the very existence Of the nation
/ depended on economy in the army. Warm
| hearted, affectionate, generous to the ex-
/ treme, the soldiers loved him and many
/ officers regarded him with romantic ar
| lection. lie was prompt to acknowledge
