Synopsis

A Reply To General Joseph Reed's Remarks On A Late Publication In The Independent Gazetteer: With Some Observations On His Address To The People Of Pennsylvania" by John Cadwalader. This pamphlet presents Cadwalader's response to General Reed's remarks and addresses a public controversy over loyalty and patriotism during the American Revolution. It includes printed letters and certificates from multiple contemporaries (including Lennox, Nixon, Rush, Davenport, Bradford, Nichols, Hamilton, Laurens, and others) to corroborate claims that Reed entertained desertion in 1776 and sought protection from Count Donop. Cadwalader recounts critical events around Bristol, Trenton, and the Delaware crossing, disputes Reed's insinuations, and defends his own integrity and fidelity to the American cause. Framed as a political polemic in the early republic, the tract engages with questions of virtue, truth, and governance amid revolutionary upheaval.
