Excerpt from History of the First New Hampshire Regiment in the War of the Revolution The story of the American Revolution has been often written, and most readers are familiar with its prominent features of toils, privation and battles, as well as with the lives of its noted warriors and statesmen. But history like science and the arts is progressive, and we now desire to see details, we wish to know more of the every day life of that period, the names and doings of the humbler officers and men who were the participators in the long marches and sufferings, and also in the battles which produced such glorious results. But so far our history seems deficient in these particulars, as well as in giving us any information of the manner in which regiments were raised, armed, clothed, and supplied with the resources for war.

These will be conveyed to Albany in a few days when all the detachments will join their corps." The regiment wintered in detachments at Saratoga, Schenectady and the neighboring posts. At this time the difficulties between New York and Vermont were at their height and a condition little short of actual war existed between them, while Gen. Stark thought New Hampshire ought to settle the difficulty by claiming the territory it had formerly granted arid holding it. In April, 1782, Washington established his head quarters at Newburg, where he continued most of the time, till nearly all the army was discharged. In the autumn the army, which had mainly all been encamped at Verplanck's point, marched up and was hutted at New Windsor, two miles below Washington's quarters, and here or in the neighborhood our regiment spent the winter of 1782 and the following year. These were months of repose, the war was over, their long weary marches and months of privations were past, the battles had been fought, the great cause for which they had so long contended was gained, and they could look forward to peace and prosperity. But the definitive treaty had not been signed, and the British army still held New Tork. Under these circumstances Washington recommended that the army should still he retained, and so they remained till November, when the British commander notified.Washington that he was ready to evacuate the city of New York, which he soon did, and "Washington entered it the same day, and during that month nearly all of our troops were disbanded..
