But General Wusliington's Manuscript Plan of the Couiitnj took no notice of any such occupation of tlie mainland, as was thus stated, previously to the twenty-first ; Captain Hall, who was in the Royal Army, made no nrention whatever of any movement of that Army, during the intervening peiiod, except of that of the advance, who encountered General Glover, (Histori/ of the Civil War in America, i., 205 ;) and Stednian, who is said to have been inspired by General Sir Henry Clinton, in his Historij of the American War, (i., 212,) was equally silent, on that subject. Colonel Harrison's letter to William Dner, "Camp on Valentine's Hills, October 21, 1776"-- "Since his "Excellency's letter of yesterday, nothing of importance has transpired, "unless the marching of the enemy, to-day, from Eastchester towards " New Rochelle, is considered in that light " -- General George I'lintcju's Information relating to the Enemg, dated "October 21, 1776,'' i'l which the enemy was said to "now lay from where they first landed, extended "about one mile Eiist of New Rochelle;" and General Washington's despatch to the Continenbil Congress, dated '• Head-qo.ikters, Wiuve- " Plains, 25 October, 1770," all clearly indicated that such a movement of the main body of the King's Army was not made on the eighteenth ; and nobody has pretended that Colonel Glover confronted the entire Royal Army and held it in check, during the whole of the day, as he must have done, had that Army moved from Pell's-neck, on that day. We prefer to believe, therefore, that, although the advance and, possibly, some otlier detachments of that Army may have moved and occupied the country between Hutchinson's river and New Rochelle, on the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth of October, " the main boriy " remained ou Pell's-neck, until the twenty first, as stated, indirectly, by Hall and Stedman, confirmed by the testimony of General Washington.
