Continental Army suffers deprivations.

Encamped a scant twenty miles from Philadelphia, Gen. Washington’s army struggles in harsh winter. After the defeat at Brandywine, the Continental Army suffered humiliation as Congress fled Philadelphia in advance of Royal troops. The Redcoats subsequently marched upon and occupied our patriot capitol. Soon after, miseries were increased with the lamentable defeat at Germantown.

Gen. Washington has now located his army at a place called Valley Forge south of the Schuylkill River where the high ground of Mounts Joy and Misery provide for easy defense. However, the Patriots must contend with starvation and want of clothing and shelter. Indeed, the General has set them to the building of huts with logs. He promises twelve dollars to reward the party in each regiment which finishes their hut in the quickest and most workmanlike manner.
