A MIDNIGHT SURPRISE

For the capture of Stony Point, read Lodge's _Story of the Revolution_, Vol. II, p. 130; Brady's _American Fights and Fighters_, p. 121; and Roosevelt and Lodge's _Hero Tales from American History_, p. 79. Henry P. Johnston's _The Storming of Stony Point_ is perhaps the best account ever written of this famous exploit.
