Excerpt from The Writings of George Washington, Vol. 10 The enemy, persisting in that barbarous line of conduct, they have pursued during the course of this war, have lately most inhumanly executed Captain Joshua Huddy, of the Jersey State troops, taken prisoner by them at a post on Tom's River; and in consequence I have written to the British Com mander-in-chief, that, unless the perpetrators Of that horrid deed were delivered up, I should be under the disagreeable necessity of retaliating, as the only means left to put a stop to such inhuman proceedings.

Excerpt from George Washington, Vol. 1 of 2 The position of Washington in the historical annals of the United States was determined before his death. The century that has passed since that event has only confirmed the judgment of his contemporaries, and changed but little the eminence conferred upon him. He stands at this time for what is best and highest in public policy and political morality; and his name is still sought to give support to aims but little in consonance with his expressed opinions. An Englishman and conservative by origin and temperament, he became the central figure in the Revolution, the very embodiment of the radicalism of the day. Successful in winning independence for his country, he again became a conservative, a check upon the rampant dishonesty, the product of war and paper money, that threatened the union of the States. As President he was the great source of federal power, and maintained a balance between the contending factions which would mould the government to serve their own extreme ends.

Excerpt from Life of George Washington, Vol. 1 of 5 I have endeavored to execute my task with can dor and fidelity; stating facts on what appeared to be good authority, and avoiding as much as possible all false coloring and exaggeration. My work is founded on the correspondence of Washington, which, in fact, affords the amplest and surest groundwork for his biography. This I have consulted as it ex ists in manuscript in the archives of the Department of State, to' which I have had full and frequent ac cess. I have also made frequent use of Washing ton's Writings, as published by Mr. Sparks a care ful collation of many of them with the originals hav ing convinced me of the general correctness of the collection, and of the safety with which it may be re lied upon for historical purposes; and I am happy to bear this testimony to the essential accuracy of one whom I consider among the greatest benefactors to our national literature; and to whose writings and researches I acknowledge myself largely indebted throughout my work.
