Reply to comment by THE_some_guy in The Battle of Princeton occurred 246 years ago today, ending in a small victory for the Colonials. After the battle, Washington moved his army to Morristown, and with their third defeat in 10 days, the British evacuated southern New Jersey by rollotomasi07071

I love that. I didn't know that. Thank you. I find NJ history and how so much history connects through our state fascinating.

It may be apocryphal- I'm skeptical that "bread" as slang for money was a thing in 1905, or that Wilson would have used it even if it was.

But if it's a lie, it's an entertaining one.
