The Battle of Trenton and Princeton

On this day in 1777,

British garrisons took up positions against Washington at Trenton and both armies settled in for the night after a day of skirmishes as a prelude to the Battle of Trenton and Princeton.

1777 was called the "year of the hangman" because reversed, the sevens resembled gallows.
