his expenses. If the revolt failed or his services
proved unsatisfactory, he was to receive nothing
more otherwise, he was to be refunded the in

was accepted, and Steuben reached Valley Forge
on February 49,
The suffering of the troops and their lack of
discipline and proper organization astonshed
Steuben greatly. Il have seen," he wrote long
afterward, "a regiment consisting of 80 men, and
a company of one corporal. We had more
ccmmissares and quartermasters at that time
than all the armies Of Europe together"
Hitherto five to eight thousand muskets had
been lost yearly through discharged soldiers car
rying them home as souvenirs
The loss OF bayonets was still greater The
American soldier, never having used this arm,
had no faith in it, and never used it only to roast
his beefsteak and, indeed often left it at home.
With regard to their military discipline Steuben
found no such thing existed
In spite Of jealousy on the part of some of the
other officers Steuben accomplished wonders.
The next year not more than score of muskets
were lost inEtcad of thousands Steuhen turned
drill sergeant and introduced discipline such as
the troops had never known. Rising at three in
the morning, he would drink cup of coffee,
smoke pipe, and then ride to the parade ground
for hard days labor His enthusiasm proved
contagious, and the whole camp fell to drilling.
The army was greatly cheered In April by the
news that France long Americas secret ally, had
at last decided openly to enter the lists in her
favor

more heartfelt JOY" wrote Washington. May

Divine Goodness, and celebrating the important
event. which we owe to His benign interposition."
BY Washington's orders the whole army paraded
arms, and the troops cheered Justify for the king
of France" "the friendly European power" and
'the American states"
Not less joyful to the waiting army was the
news brought to Valley Forge on June that the
the British had evacuated Philadelphia. The long
months Of suffering and Encouragement had at
last borne fruit. BY their patriotic devotion
Washington and his men had held the aenemy In
check until better days dawned. BY holding to-

preserved the revolution.
