 It Is the then unattractive site lined with barren, frozen hillsldes, where General George Washington and his little army of about 10000 half-starved. poorly clad patriots biv- ouaced, suffering unthinkoble hard ship, from December, 1777. to June. TITS, following the tragic battle of the Brandywine and the occupancy of Philadelphia by the British.
 This circumstance of history be- queathed to this hallowed place a glory and fame which will attach to
