Fortonatdy I have before me a ieries of manufcript memorandums by Sir Henry CHnton, on the events and condu£t of the war, that may better teft the valae of Howe's iervices.
Of the meafiire that led to the American vidories of Trenton and Piinceton, Sir Henry obferves: ''There were who thou^t (and were not fileQt) *' that a chain acrofs Jeriey might be dangerous. General Howe wrote '' to General Clinton thus a few days before the miifortone : ' I have been " prevailed upon to run a chain acrofs ...Jerfey : the linb are rather too hx '* afunder.' * * * I am dear," Clinton continues, ** it would have been ** better if Sir William Howe had not taken a cham acro6 Jerfey.'* Of the maraudings in 1 776-7 of the Engliih in the Jerfeys, Clmton fiiys: " Unlefs we could refrain from plundering, we had no bufinefs to take " up winter quarters in a diftri£t we wiihed to pftferve loyal The ** Heffians introduced it." Of Howe's movement fix>m New York againft Phikddphia, he ob* ffrves : '* I owe it to truth to fiiy there was not, I believe, a man in the ** army except Lord Comwallis and General Grant who did not reprobate ** the move to the fouthward, and fee the neceffity of a cooperation with ** General Bnrgoyne." Of Howe's fuffering Waihington to retreat, comparatively unpurfued at the moment, from the field of Brandywtne : ** Tis pity Sir William " Howe coA not have begun his march at nightfall, inftead of eight ** o'clock in the morning." Of Howe's crowning the campaign with the occupation of Phikdelphia : *' General Clinton told Lord George Germain, April 27th, and Sir ^* William Howe repeatedly, after his return to America, his humble " opinion that Philadelphia had better cloie than open the campaign, as " it required an array to defend it." Of the battle of Germantown and the check to the Americans occa* iioned by Mu^rave's throwing himfelf with a few companies into Chew*s Houfe, Sir Henry makes a remark that, while it (hews on what chances the fiite of a batde may turn, does not at all fupport Howe's aflevention that of Stan/bury and OdelL 139 that his anny was not farprifed : ''Had Waihington left a corps to ob- " ierve this houfe, and proceeded, there is no faying what might have ** been the confequence/' But enough has been quoted to exhibit Sir WiUiam's deficiencies: what their cade was is another queffion.
