the practice of playing cards greatly
prevails in this camp. He orders
that such practice be wholly laid
aside for the future
AS the barracks and grounds in
this camp continue to be dirty and
filthy, and since regard to decency
and the preservation of their health
will not induce the men to be suit
ably clean, the General desires and
directs that the officers exert them
selves to keep the camp clean"
August %, 1875. The enemy
have now landed on Long Island, and
the hour is fast approaching in which
the honor and success of this army
and the safety of our blessed country
depends. Remember, officers and
soldiers, that you are free men fight
ing for the blessings of liberty, that
slavery be your portion, and that of
your posterity, if you do not acquit
yourselves like men,"
THE General is resolved to put
stop to plundering or converting
either public or private property to
their own use, for let it ever be re-
membered that no plundering army
was ever successful one"
The Washington diary is filled
with such advice as the following:
Remember how your courage and
spirits have been despised and ira
duced by their cruel invasion,
though they have found by dear ex-
perience at Boston, Charlestown and
other places what few brave men
contending in their own land in the
best of causes, can do against base
hirelines and mercenaries. Be cool,
but determined, don't fire at a dis
lance but wait for orders from your
officers 1t is the Generals express
orders that If any man attempt to
skulk, he be instantly shot down, but
he hopes no such scoundrel will be
found in this army, but instead, that
every one will resolve to conquer or
die and trust in the smiles of Heaven
upon so just cause The General
has no doubt that they will, by
glorious victory, save their country
and acquire to themselves immortal
honor"
Through the discovery of the
Washington Order Book, the char
acter of the General-in- chief of the
Revolution Is laid open to thu
scrutiny of the generations with
deeper insight than has ever before
been possible. Other than its i'm
portance as military record it is 2
true analysis of the man himself.
