It had been rumored In Philadel phia, while the winter held, that the army had secretly determined not to lay down their arms until due provision and a satisfactory prospect should be afforded on the subject of their pay," and that Washington had grown unpopular among almost all ranks because of his harshness sgainst every unlawful means of securing Iustlce.

The two years he had yet to wait may well have seemed to him the longest of his life, and may have added a touch of their own to what strangers deemed his sternness. Washington had seldom seemed so stern aa in one incident of those trying months An officer of the .American army had been taken In a skirmish, and the English had permitted a brutal company of loyalists, under one Captain Llppincott. to take him from hia prison In New York and wantonly hang him In broad daylight on the heights ., near Middletown. Washington at once notified the British commander that unless tbs murderers were delivered up t be punished, a British officer would be chosen by lot from amorg hla prisoners to suffer in their stead; and, when reparation was withheld, proceeded without hesitation to carry his threat into execution. The lot fell upon Captaln Charles Asglll, an engaging youth of only nineteen, the heir of a great English family. Lady Asglll, the lads mother, did not stop short of moving the very French court itself to intervene to save her son, and at last ths congress counseled his releass, the English commander having disavowed the act of the murderers in whose place he waa to suffer, and Washington himself having asked to be directed what be should do. "Captain Asglll hat been released .
