Excerpt from Leading Events of the American Revolution The preparation of this little volume has been attended With much difficulty, because of the disagreement of authori ties whose statements often conflict. Thus, the storming of Stony Point is given by some as July 15, and by others as July 16, 1779. Both dates are correct, as the assault occurred about midnight, but July 15 is preferred.
