paper currency on the continent. produced a most awful crisis in America. She had contended by herself against entire forces of Eng land since the commencement of her revolution. The more she had struggled, the less able she was now to hold out. The congress, in this critical situation, resolved to solicit from her ally the King of France further assistance, by a fresh sup ply of naval and land forces and money, which the latter according ly granted, by immediately sending out squadron of seven ships to cruise off the coast, a corps of four thousand able troops, and a consid- erable supply of specie"
 Upon Rochambeau's observation that four thousand troops made a very small force to send so far away, the number was doubled, as It being impossible to secure enough ships for this Rochambeau was able to embark only about five thousand men.
 Although Rochambeau arrived in America in 17S0 it was a year be- fore he was able to take active part in a campaign. In the spring of 1781 he marched as far as the Hud- son intending to cooperate with Washington in an attempt on New York, but without fleet it was inn possible to carry out these plans. When news arrived later that De Grasse was on his way to the Ches- apeake with a formidable French fleet, the allies at once changed their objective and proceeded to Yorktown.
