The British were making strenuous efforts to get hold of the Hudson in order to keep free communication with Canada by the additional channels of the St. Lawrence and Lake Champlain. and so it was determined to obstruct the Hudson by a great chain crossing from Fort Montgomery to Anthony's Nose But this was a failure. The chain parted within a week after it bad been | stretched, and. although subsequently | raised and again placed. it was de stroyed by the British Finally Washington decided to forge another and obstruct the river between | West Point and Constitution island, for bere there was an abrupt change of course, and a heavy tide reduced the ‘speed of any ship encountering it.
