Jones of Eeading and Dr. John Woolf Joedan of the Pennsylvania Order of the Cincinnati Librarian of the Pennsylvania Historical Society. The Phoenix Military Band also met the Massachusetts delega- tion at the Betzwood railroad station, and remained with it under the charge of the Eev. W. Herbert Bdek, the officially appointed chaplain, until the close of the exercises at the Washington Memo- rial Chapel, courteously offered for the uses of the Commission. On 19 June, 1909, the Massachusetts Society of Sons of the American Eevolution here dedicated the Massachusetts Bay of the Cloister of the Colonies at Valley Forge, to which edifice the Society had contributed about $2,000. It is less than a mile away from the Massachusetts Military Monument, just without the Park limits of the Pennsylvania Valley Forge Park. 8 INTRODUCTORY. The delegation remained long enough at the Memorial on 18 JSTov., 1911, for Mr. J. S. Kennedy and the photographer of the P-J Press Bureau, 908 Walnut St., Philadelphia, to secure photo- graphs. Here Chaeles Ikving Thayer, Esq., in behalf of the Massachusetts Society of Sons of the Eevolution, placed a large and beautiful wreath at the base of the bronze tablet of the granite exhedra erected by Massachusetts, this day dedicated. The weather was such as to prevent an open-air programme. MASSACHUSETTS DAY AT VALLEY FORGE. — DEDICATION OF THE MASSACHUSETTS MARKER. Unfortunately neither Governor Foss of Massachusetts nor Gov- ernor Tener of Pennsylvania was present. The Hon. J. Stearns Gushing acted in behalf of the Governor of Massachusetts and Mr. William H. Sayen, President of the Valley Forge Park Commis- sion, represented the Governor of Pennsylvania. By the appoint- ment of Governor Poss the Eev. Mr. W. Herbert Burk was the chap- lain of the day. The exercises at the Chapel were in charge of Mr. Thomas Franklin Pedrick, Sergeant-at-Arms, Massachusetts House of Rep- resentatives, who, after the opening prayer by the Rev. W. Herbert Burk, called up Mr. William H. Sayen, president of the Pennsjd- vania Valley Forge Park Commission, to make the address of wel- come. This he did in the place of Governor John K. Tener, of Pennsylvania. President Sayen was very happy in his words of welcome. He welcomed not only those from the great Common- wealth of Massachusetts, but also those from the great United States, if any were present. He said that he should have preferred that the Governor of Pennsylvania were in his place extending the welcome, but that he extended as hearty a welcome as his feeble voice could utter. On behalf of the Bay State, Hon. Arthur S. Adams of Marble- head, member of the State Senate, responded telling how glad he was to do so on behalf of his associates and the citizens and declared the Massachusetts monument at Valley Forge idea emanated from his predecessor in office from the Marblehead district; and tittingly, too, for Gen. John Glover, who commanded a brigade of Massachu- setts troops who were encamped on the present site of the monu- ment, was a native of Marblehead. He said that Massachusetts stands to-day, as in 1776, shoulder to shoiilder with Pennsylvania. Gen. Philip Eeade, United States Army, the orator of the day, ■Jh^igt^/. INTRODUCTORY. 9 who is a retired army officer, made an address ringing with patriot- ism. He is president of the Massachusetts Valley Forge Monument Commission and at the conclusion of his address he turned over the monument to the State of Massachusetts. General Eeade said, in part : — Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. There is kinship binding Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. The word " Kinship " means a great deal. These commonwealths corresponded in 1775, courted in 1776, became engaged the following year, and wed in 1778. Five generations ago, at Valley Forge, soldiers from these united commonwealths here drank from the same canteen. There is never a bond like this. " There are bonds of all sorts in this world of ours ; fetters of friendship and ties of flowers, and true lovers' knots, I ween. The boy and girl are bound by a kiss, but there never was a bond, my friends, like this: We have drunk from the same canteen." Here the Colonial E evolutionary forces first learned the meaning of the word " Comrade." In the algid winter of 1777-78, here, in the Schuylkill Valley, Massa- chusetts and Pennsylvania shared together the blanket of snow, the canopy of ice, the pangs of hunger, the labors, material privations, destitutions, factions of the bivouac, cantonment and subsequent camp. Representatives of the communities respectively founded by William Peun and stern soldiers from the then far off Bay State whose Brad- fords chronicled soldiers in both commonwealths; here, then, filled the gap between Saratoga and Monmouth; were hammered, shaped, drilled and disciplined into that unity of action with other Continental troops essential for success at Freehold sis months later. Whether in months of patient endurance or days of active campaign; periods of martial faith, unaccompanied by the stimulus of combat; or stiffened and frosted by December's wintry blasts, or June's blistering, searing sun, here at Valley Forge and thereafter those from the state whose capital bell had proclaimed " Liberty throughout the land, and to the inhabitants thereof " ; and those from the state whose embattled farmers had " fired the shot heard round the world " ; those whose mention is made in part, here where the granite and bronze markers erected by the generosity and gratitude of Pennsylvania to its pa- triotic revolutionists learned to know and to respect one another. A majority of the newly-assembled troops at Valley Forge were without cohesion, organization or leadership. During the winter of 1777-78 Washington changed all this before six months had elapsed. Massachusetts was foremost in shaping the thirteen links of the chain now numbering more than thrice that number of states of this nation. These links were inseparably forged on the banks of the Schuylkill, the Delaware, the Hudson and the York. Pennsylvania owns two of 10 INTRODUCTORY. these rivers. When the " Yankees " came here to join the " Buektails," they may have been somewhat alien in interests, but the melting pot of Valley Forge resulted in oneness. To the markers, cenotaphs, statues and boulders of Pennsylvania and our then jDrovinee of Maine, Ave, to-day, add an exhedra contributed by Massachusetts for dedication and formal acceptance. I believe that the approval of the creators of this Republic, founded by the Colonists and preserved by the men of 1861-65, is with us now. When Acton claimed excess of credit over Concord for the drum- beating affair of April 19, 1775, statesmen solved the rival claims of the towns by saying " that Concord furnished the ground, but Acton furnished the men for the Lexington fight." We of Massachusetts are here to-day for two purposes, one of which is to thank Pennsylvania for furnishing the area and arena within the limits of which, at the most critical joeriod of the history of the nation, Massachusetts statesmen and soldiers settled the question of ability to maintain by diplomatic equity and the arbitrament of war what Inde- pendence Hall, Philadelphia, had Continentally jDroclaimed as the in- alienable right of the Colonies. The fate of the Revolution rested here. Valley Forge was the blood- less, pivotal battle of the Revolution. It marked the disaiDi3earance of the States militia short-term levy. There are some in this assembly from Massachusetts who have made a pilgrimage to Petersburg, Virginia. Some of these delegates to that other monument, dedicated last Monday, belong to that Grand Army of the Republic whose comrades dedicated their physical, mental and spiritual effort five decades ago to the maintenance of the Union created by the Revolutionists. Their every respiration, every pulse beat, every waking thought is here equally consecrated to the nation which they saved from disin- tegration. Allied with them to-day at this Mecca of patriotic Ameri- cans are some, not comrades of the G. A. R., but who now serve the state whose iDroclamations are " God save the Commonwealth of Massa- chusetts." All here are vibrant with deej^ undertones of reminiscence. Kinship exists between these jointly conducted memorial services; time will neither extinguish or chill it. The monuments at Petersburg and at Valley Forge have a common ancestry. There are no contending subtle .currents. The astonishing thing is that our mother commonwealths have waited until now to realize how much in love we are. The monuments are eloquently silent. The inscriptions graved into the Egyj^tian obelisk in New York are as undeciiiherable to some as the aboriginal inscrip- tions on Dighton Rock; but there is no misundei'standing regarding the letterings now on our twin monument. INTRODUCTORY. 11 Life's race well run, Life's work well done, Life's crown well won. Now Cometh rest. Rest, but not oblivion, so long as these granite and bronze outward testimonials of inward reverence shall endure. Confidence exists that to the unborn generations this memorial tablet will be a message from the Massachusetts soldiers at Valley Forge. Unfortunately, this is not enough. The resurrection of the names on this bronze tablet is not enough. Further adequate tribute to the Massachusetts dead should come from the State by chronicling their records. Such publication would be in the nature of a pension for their doings. Exaggeration weakens any cause, but surely these men were the grandsires of the Civil War soldiers. Their records should be alike cared for. This memorial is merely a crypt or cenotaph. The history of Valley Forge has never been printed. Its literature only exists in manuscript form. We owe this further tribute to these sol- diers. Each of the Colonies unrepresented here by state monuments should, by adequate appropriations, rescue from oblivion the records a^the Revolutionary creators. / Valley Forge did not publish any newspaper. The soldiers had no (war correspondent or photographer to chronicle or perpetuate their Xloings or environments. Washington's army at first was without dis- cipline, experience in concert, money or military supplies. The system of recruiting had led to the appointment of some incompetent officers. Jealousies, a cabal, and disputes combined to still further impair the efficiency of the troops. The materials were discordant at first. There was a lack of co-ordination between the states and the Continental Congress, which, at first, lacked unifying force, as well as resources, to back its resolves. Friction was inevitable, and the soldiers suffered in discipline and health. Hunger causes overt acts. / Valley Forge was the melting pot of thirteen colonies. Six months made out of thirteen colonial armies one Continental army. Valley Forge built uj?, Americanized, and created our national, permanent, military establishment. Valley Forge is the first place where troops from all the thirteen colonies were mobilized for unity and acquaintance; but the camp has never been described by historians in proportion or perspective. A great ideal is the strongest factor in human affairs — but the thought and feeling of the thirteen state forces focalized at Valley Forge, the winter of 1777-78, were not in unison until after the experiences there had. It was the flint-loek period. Sparks followed attrition of North- ern flint and Southern steel. There was not in the Continental army any NajDoleon, Grant, Sher- man, Sheridan or Thomas holding an obscure position to overtop 12 INTRODUCTORY. Washington. He built his own ladder, climbed it. Later, he refused a crown. Esprit-de-eorps was at first lacking at Valley Forge. It was not a complex problem. There were two issues. Should the soldiers take orders from their respective states, or from Washington? The Lexington shot has been heard of around the world and results and causes have been examined with a microscope, but historically Valley Forge troops have not been heard of or examined save through the inverted end of a sjDy glass. Massachusetts was the home, birthiolaee and cradle of Revolutionary armed resistances. This commonwealth became the citadel from whence came the men, and, largely, the material from which the other colonies got the resources necessary for the promotion and success of that Revo- lution. Hon J. Stearns Gushing, one of the two members of Governor Eugene Poss's Executive Gouncil, acted in the Governor's absence in receiving the monument on behalf of the State. He complimented General Eeade and the others of the monument commission for their splendid work, declaring that the monument was a work of art and unique as well. He said, as General Eeade once said, the circular form of the monument was like a mother's arms extended to take care of her children. Mr. Gushing showed his State pride and patriotism when he held to the idea that Faneuil Hall, in Boston, was the real Cradle of Liberty, but was willing to admit that the trundle bed of Liberty was Independence Hall, Philadelphia. The speaker then turned the monument over to the Pennsylvania Valley Porge Park Commission, hoping that Pennsylvania would care for it and cherish it as it ought — as is due those boys and those men who left their homes in Massachusetts and helped to build up a government. President Sayen accepted the monument on behalf of the State of Pennsylvania and of the Valley Forge Park Commission. He said : — Commissioners and Citizens of Massachusetts : — I feel in ad- dressing you almost as though I were addressing the minute men of '76, as you are all the descendants of that noble band of patriots, who, at Concord and Lexington, began the fight for liberty which culminated in success at Valley Forge. As at Gettysburg the charge of Pickett's Brigade culminated the success of the war for the Union, so at Valley Forge the conversion of a body of raw and untrained militia into a drilled body of veterans by the skill of Baron Steuben, culminated the success of the war for Liberty, as Washington never lost a battle with INTRODUCTORY. 13 these troops, after he left Valley Forge. You have chosen to com- memorate your heroes of the Revolution with a monument of imperish- able stone. Where now lie buried the countless warriors of Assyria? Who knows? Where are buried the legions of Caesar? Who knows? To-day the savants of the world are striving to decipher on monuments cf stone the names and deeds of a few hundred heroes who lived 3,000 or 4,000 years ago. Who knows but that in 3,000 or 4,000 years hence a new nation, a new people perhaps will be striving to decipher on this very stone the names of the patriots you have caused to be placed thereon? Commissioners and citizens of Massachusetts, I accept in the name of the great State of Pennsylvania, from the great State of Massachu- setts, this monument of imperishable stone erected by you to the mem- ory of your heroes of the Revolution. The orator of the day was Brig. Gen. Philip Eeade, IT. S. A., Chairman of the Massachusetts Military Monument Commission, whose devoted services in the erection of this State monument were recognized by this appointment. General Eeade said in part : — Henry Knox, Rufus Putnam, Thos. Nixon and these men became entitled to this monument one hundred and thirty-four years ago. This granite and bronze merely suggests their merits and doings. No hostile shot was here fired by them. Their mission was unification, with Steuben as Washington's Von Moltke and Alexander Hamilton as his Bismarck. Washington here prevented what threatened to be a loose confederacy of independent states. This monument, side by side with that of Maine, is a tardy recognition of the dead. It marks a period, following the Saratoga Convention, when Congress failed to support Washington and even the people withheld their sympathies. This memorial signalizes and proclaims the quality of some names and doings of Pilgrim forbears. The soldiers who served at Valley Forge were captains of industry as well as of patriotism. Some of their names are on the bronze tablet to testify that we now recognize their worth. The tablet is not large enough for the names of all, but it testifies to an awakened consciousness of what we owe these dead soldiers. By the erection of this Exhedra, Massachusetts testifies its recogni- tion of our obligations to the privates, subalterns, captains, field and staff officers, and general officers, whether they carried flint-lock mus- kets, espontons, pikes or swords. When Massachusetts views the Military Monument erected to the memory of these soldiers of 1777-78, and when we review the doings of our Revolutionary forbears then within the area of the Schuylkill 14 INTRODUCTORY. Valley and its outposts, we have reason to be grateful to them. They numbered over forty per cent, of Washing'ton's entire effective army. Adjutant General Timothy Pickering's Valley Forge Return of Dee. 29, 1777, forwarded by Washington to Massachusetts authorities on that date, and still preserved in the State Manuscript Archives, reports as follows : Aggregate strength, then, 4,404 Massachusetts soldiers of Glover's, Learned's and Paterson's brigades. There were eleven in- fantry regiments, exclusive of Crane's artillery, and the additional foot regiments of Colonels Henry Jackson, William Raymond Lee, David Henley and the infantry life gniard of Caleb Gibbs; also exclusive of our Massachusetts troops on the Hudson under Putnam, or the artillery of Colonel John Crane, or the infantry of General J. M. Varnum, of Massachusetts at forts on the Delaware. Of these effectives, Washington's letter of January, 1778, states that, " in nineteen days the ranks decreased near three thousand men." It is believed that a heavy percentage of this decrease was due to external, avertable causes, and neglects, that is, the disabilities were due to pri- vations and lack of supplies. For the deficiency in the matter of rations, clothing, blankets, etc., neither Washington nor the commonwealth of Massachusetts was re- sponsible. Recent investigation has flx:ed the responsibility. The state of the same Massachusetts regiments under Cols. Joseph Vose, John Bailey, Wm. Shepard, M, Jackson, Jas. Wesson, Thos. Marshall, Benj. Tupper, Saml. Brewer, Edw. Wigglesworth, Gamaliel Bradford and Timothy Bigelow, after six months' occupancy of Valley Forge — no reference being made to the other four Massachusetts regi- ments represented there in June, 1778 — is shown by the abstract of Deputy Muster Master Gen. William Bradford, Jr., lieutenant colonel of Pennsylvania, the original manuscript of which valuable abstract is fortunately j^reserved in the historical society of the Keystone State. Desceiption of the Monument. Contractor: Van Amringe Granite Company of Boston. It contains 341 cubic feet; is composed of 29 pieces; weighs 59,- 180 pounds. The smallest piece weighs over % of a ton. The largest piece weighs over 5 tons. It is made of Barre^, Vermont, granite, light, fine-hammered finish; from the Mill Stone quarry, a mountain that sold thirty years ago for $200, and out of which hun- dreds of thousands of pounds of granite have since been shipped to the Pacific Coast and Japan. Its dimensions are : width, 23 feet by 10 feet 10 inches; height of the pylon, or central tablet, 9 feet 8 inches ; height from the floor to top of seat, 4 feet 2 inches ; length of the bronze panel, 5 feet 6 inches; bottom width of same, 3 feet 3 inches ; top width, 3^ feet. INTRODUCTORY. 15 The p3''lon, or central marker tablet, has incised into its granite face the inscription: "This monument is erected by a grateful commonwealth in memory of the soldiers of Massachusetts who served at Valley Forge 19 December, 1777-19 June, 1778/' The curved granite wings in the form of seats are incised with the legend : " Ense Petit Placidam Sub Libertate Quietem." The front face of the pylon is topped, in relief, by the bronze coat-of-arms of Massachusetts. The bronze panel on the reverse of the pylon inscribes the names, rank, and organization of one hun- dred and forty-six officers of Massachusetts troops of the rank of captain, or higher rank, who served at Valley Forge. These names are in relief. The phraseology of the hewed epitaph thoughtfully includes the words, " Grateful Commonwealth." They are well chosen. On the face of each of the Barre granite posts, or ends, of the enfolding wings, symbolic of parentage, the sculptor depicjts an officer's unsheathed sword in carved relief. The absence of the scab- bard is designedly suggestive. The delvings and research involved in the resurrection of the names, with the facts behind them, of the soldiers whose mention is on the cenotaph has been the act of a tireless, conscientious student of Eevolutionary Valley Forge history. The Value of Valley Forge. Valley Forge was the reveille of the army of the United States, the first call for which was sounded by Washington, who demon- strated that public safety required enlistments be made for the war, that confederation under one commander did not mean a crown, that Continental Congresses and Councils of War were inefficient to win campaigns, that unskilled volunteers were no match in the long run for well trained veterans, that they cost more, that a stand- ing army was not a thing to be dreaded, that he wished the free holders, the plain people, the independent farmers, the humble school house people to be the advance guard trained under able, experienced commanders, bound to one another, to their officers and their united country until their work was done. Had Washington's army at Valley Forge been destroyed or scat- tered, the conquest of the Hudson and the separation of New Eng- land from the Middle States might have been an easy task. The Massachusetts troops at Valley Forge were of the foremost actors in the various movements which culminated in that " more perfect 16 INTRODUCTORY. union of states " secured by the Federal Constitution. Descent from them is an honorable heritage. At the occupation of Valley Forge by armed American soldiers from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Ehode Island, on the one part; Virginia, Maryland, New York, North Carolina, and, perhaps, Pennsylvania on the other — it was a question of the establishment of a union of states ; of union with liberty ; of politi- cal existence; of reconciling divergent interests; of filling an abyss; of maintaining an equilibrium and pooling issues; of creating a mutual community of interests, sympathies and action. Valley Forge is the place where the crisis menacing the American Eepublic was averted. The only tie of common sympathy between the sections east of the Hudson, the Middle States, and the South- ern, was a coalition to be independent of Great Britain — but there was no concord in the coalition. Had the coalition disintegrated, the isolated elements might have been separately paralyzed by Eng- land. The American soldiers at Valley Forge bivouacked amid De- cember's algid surroundings, without fires, shelter, or food. Then they built their own hovels. The camp grounds became a canton- ment of huts. These algid men were busy as well as watchful, but not with muskets, and stimulating battles. Typhoid, dysentery, pneumonia, diphtheria, spotted fever, small- pox, itch, lice and maggots were doing their work in the unaccli- mated regiments. Muffled drums did not beat as the dead were buried in trenches without identification, three thousand of them. The hospital rec- ords, the mortuary records of the Schuylkill Valley region have not been published. We have the authority of Henry Woodman's journal, published in the Norristown Herald and Free Press, August 14, 1850, for the statement that mortal remains of soldiers were laid at A^alley Forge without a stone to mark the spot where their moldering ashes sleep, " but not low in the ground, for they were often buried so near the surface as to be disinterred by hungry swine, and in places where the soil has been washed off, the decaying bones have been presented to view, some of which I have seen within the last thirty years." The grave5'-ard. Valley Forge, did not give to its dead any mark- ers or headstones. Nothing could more significantly emphasize the misery of the time, the winter of 1777-78, than the fact that no accurate, or even approximate record of deaths at Valley Forge has been found, nor is it known with certainty where the common INTRODUCTORY. ■ 17 burial place is located. Of all the hapless victims of the bivouac or camp, but one New England man is known by name and sleeps in an identified grave. This John Waterman monument is the work of the Daughters of the Kevolution. A tie that binds Massa- chusetts to Valley Forge is the fact that several thousands of en- listed men from Massachusetts served there. The known representation at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, be- tween December 19, 1777, and June 19, 1778, by officers from counties and towns in Massachusetts, regiments of the line, Conti- nental army, under the personal command of General George Wash- ington, was as follows : — Barnstable county, five towns, eleven officers; Berkshire county, seventeen towns, thirty-two officers; Bristol county, ten towns, twenty officers; Essex county, sixteen towns, seventy-six officers; Franklin county, five towns, eight officers; Hampden county, nine towns, fifteen officers; Hampshire county, seven towns, ten officers; Middlesex county, twenty-nine towns, seventy-five officers; Norfolk county, eleven towns, twenty-nine officers ; Plymouth county, eleven towns, fifty officers ; Suffolk county, six towns, eighty-seven officers ; Worcester county, thirty towns, sixty-three officers. The province of Maine, then a part of Massachusetts, was represented at Valley Forge by nineteen towns and fifty-eight officers. Other states: Connecticut, five towns; New Hampshire, three towns; New York, three towns; Ehode Island, two towns; Maryland, Pennsylvania, Vermont and Virginia, one town each ; total for " other states," seventeen toAvns. There were in the Massachusetts regiments at Valley Forge : from France four officers ; unplaced, thirty-two officers. This gives a total of five hundred and ninety-one officers, ranging in rank from ensign to general, representing one hundred and seventy-five cities and towns of Massachusetts. An interesting feature of the program was the unveiling of the screen of the Presidents' Pew. As the Phcenix Military Band played " America," the Hon. Frank Goodwin unveiled this mag- nificent memorial of Washington and his Major Generals at Valley Forge. General Eeade at the close of the program offered a resolution of thanks to Mr. Burk for the use of the Chapel, and this was adopted by a rising vote. In responding to the expression of thanks, Dean Burk said : — 18 > INTRODUCTORY. Washington has been well called the Father of his Country. The Washington Memorial Chapel dedicated to his memory, must be as com- prehensive in its character as his national fatherhood. Here all Ameri- can patriots must feel at home, and so you are here to-day not through privilege, but of right. We rejoice in your presence to-day and our welcome is only the welcome home. (Conclusion of Address of Brig. Gen. Philip Eeade, U. S. A., Chairman of the Massachusetts Military Monument Commission, — delivered at the Washington Memorial Chapel, 18th Nov., 1911, at the Dedication of the Massachusetts Militar}^ Monument at Valley Forge.) These five hundred and ninety-one named officers of Massachusetts Organizations kept company at Valley Forge, with the following named officers of other states; some of whom are found in the orders signed by Washington's favorite Adjutant General, Col. Alexander Scammell, from Mendon, now Melrose, Mass., viz. : — Brig. Gen. John Peter Gabriel Muhlenberg, born at the Trappe, Pa. Brig. Gen. Anthony Wayne, of Chester Co., Pa. Brig. Gen.

These seven soldiers all served at Valley Forge. Many historians have described Valley Forge, perhaps, Trevelyan best of all, — but the doings and the designation of the doers remain undeseribed. Many searchlights are needed. These men made history. The shadowy period of the American Revolution ended at Valley Forge. Saratoga overshadowed it. It is a field which will well reward ex- ploration. Daniel Webster erred when he said, in *' New England's Dead ", — " The world knows it — their history — by heart." No state is so rich as Massachusetts in unpublished, original docu- ments relating to Valley Forge. The Revolution had its origin in Massachusetts. New England furnished 118,355 men. Henry Knox reported that the Old Bay State furnished 67,907 men. It was in Valley Forge, rather than in great battles, that Massachusetts patriot- ism showed most clearly. New England hardly knew the presence of hostile soldiers after March, 1776. Thermopylae had three hundred deaths and a single survivor. Its story is known. Valley Forge had thousands of deaths and thousands of survivors. Its history has not been chronicled, although its actors wrote many letters from there. We never know what our Revolutionary ancestors did for us until we study their records. Disease at Valley Forge filled eleven hospitals. The camp had a hideous reputation as being a graveyard in 1777-78. No compilation in published existence gives a complete record of Massachusetts Regimental Rosters. A military historian with facts and data behind him of Massachusetts soldiers at Valley Forge, 1777- 78 is needed. It is hoped that monuments from each of the original Colonies will soon punctuate the scene of this Valley Forge Campiug Ground, in addition to the hundred thousand dollar Archway now about to be erected here by the Federal Government. Further, that at the next dedication services here, representatives from France, Germany, Russo- Poland, as well as England, including the President of the United 20 INTRODUCTORY.

The State of Massachusetts furnished for army and naval service in the Civil War 159,165 men.^ The total number of Massachusetts men who served on sea and land during the Eevolutionary War has been estimated as between 135,000 - and 140,000. The population of the State in 1776 was 338,627 =^ and in 1856 amounted to 1,267,- 031.* This means that during the Civil War 12 per cent, of the population saw service, while in the Eevolutionary War over 39 per cent, saw such service. A complete history of nearly every regiment in the Civil War has already been published, and the State has spent on their behalf $18,000, yet this is the only attempt so far made to write the history of the organization, achievements and personnel of the regim.ents in the Revolutionary War.^ ' Report of the Adjutant General of Massachusetts, January 1, 1866, p. 16. 2 Heitman in the " Historical Register of the Officers of the Continental Army," last page, estimates the entire land forces furnished by Massachusetts in the Revolutionary War as 87,907, while a careful estimate made by Mr. James J. Tracey, Chief of the Archives Department at the State House, places it as 91,000. Mr. Tracey and many others believe that the sea forces dur- ing that war amounted to at least one-half as many more.
