I am still reading Military Journal of the American Revolution by James
Thacher MD
<http://books.google.com/books?id=6Pll3okdjvAC&printsec=frontcover&dq=american+revolution+journal&ei=DcwLSKjbMIjYyASm0PTEAQ&sig=O2tfRcI_W5dah78Pbde7OTq03uY>,
and came across the following passage on page 67 regarding military
engagements between the colonists (our American forefathers) and the British
during the Revolutionary War. These battles/skirmishes occurred around White
Plains and the River Brunx- Thacher writes about some prisoners taken by the
Americans:

"A number of Hessians and Waldeckers have fallen into our hands. The German
officers and soldiers by a finesse of the British, to increase their
ferocity, had been led to believe that Americans are savages and barbarians,
and if taken, would have their bodies stuck full of pieces of dry wood and
in that manner burnt to death. But they were very agreeably disappointed,
and much pleased, on meeting civil and kind treatment."
