As Independence Day comes to a close and I have eaten and am heading to bed, one last post regarding this day. After the war was won an advisor to King George III brought him the news that General Washington was retiring to Mount Vernon. It was just assumed by all in England that like Oliver Cromwell, Washington would take his army and declare himself King or Dictator for life. George III said, "if he does that then surely he is the greatest man that ever lived."
