Gage replied after his kind. He was an incon- siderable person, dull and well meaning, intended for the command of a garrison town, and terribly twisted and torn by the great events in which he was momentarily caught.

He answered Washington's letter Digitized by Google 144 GEORGE WASHINGTON.
with denials and recriminations, lectured the Amer« ican general on the political situation, and talked about " usurped authority," " rebels," " criminals," and persons destined to the " cord."
