WASHINGTON'S CAMPAIGN
IN THE HUDSON VALLEY
By ]. A. EDGERTON
Copyright. 1912. by Americ.: Press Association

There is a sharp curve in the Hudson
we're, and this, with Constitution island
makes the narrowest spot below AL
bany. From West Point to Constitu-
ton island another and larger chain
was thrown and number of strong
forts We're established for its protec-
ton. So formidable were these works
that the British never attempted their
reduction by arms. Instead they tried
to gain control through the treason OF
Benedict Arnold who had Unanswered
to get the command in the Highlands
The capture of Andre exposed Ar
nold's plans and saved the Hudson.
Had it been taken at this time Wash
ington could scarcely have gone south
to trap CORVALLIS. nor could he have
got the French across the river from
Rhode Island. Without their aid the
campaign against CORVALLIS would not
have been undertaken. Thus the out
come of the entire war might have
been changed and the progress OF the
human race with it. On such slight
hinges does history turn.
After the surrender Of CORVALLIS
Washington established his headquir
tea's Mt Newburg to be in position 10
continue his hold on the Highlands and
to watch the British in New York
Here he remained practically till the
end of the war. Here also he put an
end to a formidable conspiracy among
his officers, of which little is said in
history. There We're more perils in
those days than the student sees from
this comfortable q. stance.
1t is the fortune of the writer to pass
frequently among the scenes Of thar
historic day. From my window as |

West Point. Then it WAS in the wilder
ness covered with freshly thrown up
earthworks defended by Il handful of
half fed and half cio,hcd lacn. Now

result of that sacrifice. Often as J

morning of the republic 1t is an in

Not long since | went up the IEud
son by moonlight. The boat sped mer
| rily. but so great was the enchantment
of the scene that one forgot its mo-
ton and lived only in the witchery of
the water and of the night. All other
senses were lulled, and | became only
detached and impersonal vision. As
we sped on our way | sought to recre-
ate the scenes that had transpired on
! these shores 1870 years before. The
mSts of the moonlight made this the
more easy. for in it could outline the
ghostly forms of soldiers and the
wraiths Of camp and column. of bris

went over the mighty issues that hung
upon the discovery Of the papers he
carried. SO great was the peril Of
that early time that found myself in
wardly gaspng in the fear that he
might escape and that treason might
overcome the young republic, not in
open fight, but by assassination.
Through long miles of moon tipped
water we pass, so glassed in peace that
one can hardly feel that it carried on
its bosom the cOntending hosts OF what
are now earth's two mightiest nations
Out Of Tappan zee we glide into Hav-

Washington seized on the Highlands

consist Of range of small mountains

of West Point
On the east shore the hills are com
paratively low at the south. beginning
with Anthony's Nose. Farther to the
north the mountains are more bold.
The highest point near the river on Ell
ther side is Mount Taurus 1925 feet
high. This is on the east shore just
north of Cold Spring, which was
named by Washington.
On the west shore are three peaks -
Bear mountain in tie south. 1914 feet

are the fine double mountain called

of the range, which brushes the clouds
at a height of 1889 feet. These ele-
vations will not seem great perhaps
to those familiar with the Alps, the
Rockies and other real mountain
ranges, but in this case figures are

The successive steps Of the British

and to put myself in spirit back in the
"timcs that tried mems souls" but it
was only Il half success. for the face
of the world has changed since then.
and the light of new era is shining
over the whole earth.
General Washington was essentially
q strategist. He has seldom been eX-
celled as a planner of campaigns. He
had large view and grasped the sa
lient points. Looking over the field AT
the beginning of the Revolution, he
perceived the Hudson river to be the
KEY to the situation. The British saw
this likewise and as a result tried to
march the i'll fated Burgoyne through
from Canada. Burgoyne nearly sue
ceeded, and the United States of Amer
lea came just that near never to being
born.
The British plan was to cut off New
England from the remainder OF the
colonies. The natural way to bring
about this result was to capture and
hold the Hudson. The attempts did
not end with Burgoyne. They did not
finally die until snothered in the dis
grace of Arnold. From the British
standpoint the campaign to control the
great river was i'll starred. beginning
with the surrender of an important
army, it ended with an attempted trea
son that failed. 1t was near success
two or three times, but by such small
misses the history of empires is chang
ed. Never did the control of the iiud-
son pass out of the hands of the Amer
lean forces. Had it done so. had Tho
news Of his advance been carried from
Howe to BurgOyne little sooner or
